well guys, since i jacked up my photo bucket, i'll re post my frame pics here. they are in no particular order, sorry. any questions or comments please chime in. mike
some little mods were needed for the frame. lol it will mostly be a 1/4 mile car,will see some street pounding, gotta keep the neighbors uneasy lol. mike
well guys, i got the lower a-arms in and hit a wall, i syuck the wrong springs in, look at the pics.
well guys, got the front end all straightened out and finished shy of an alignment. oh words of wisdom, if you don't need coil overs up front, don't use them unless your into that kinda pain. lol did get the frame leveled out and it sits 7" off the floor now. and i got the m/c mounted up, leave it to GM to have two brake line sizes.
i pulled the body this morning and got to work on some things that needed some attention, and it is easier with the body off the frame. some before pics of fuel lines, wasn't real happy with the joint i put in from hard line to flex so i changed it to full braided line . -10 is my feed, -8 is the return line and the -4 line is the feed line for the methanol. the -10 runs in the frame from the center of car back to the pump. mike
and i got my air cleaner out away from the header, went to -16 on the upper rad hose to get around the turbo stuff
got the frame completely done today. rear is set up, new rear springs fixed that, got my brake leaks fixed, one was a bad factory flare the other was my fault, paint in the groves for the copper washers. duh. got the exhaust where i want it and little tid bits that i was not satisfied with are now all done. now i can get back on the body, if can get it done in two months ya'll may just see it at sea pirate, not going to rush things though, still have a new wire harness to build and do a few other things that the turbo will require. just maybe, if not next year for sure. thanks again guys. also got the msd box and coil inside the car and got the fuel reg. in place. mike
