Project 1955 Bel Air Rear End Finishing Touches

March 20, 2023 By Tim King

Installing The Rear Bumper, Emblem, and Tail Lights On Our 1955 Bel Air On our Project 1955 Bel Air, we have gotten the car out of paint jail and are excited to get this car back together! From our previous stories you can read all about building the chassis, suspension, brakes, etc. Now it's time to make this car look more like a '55 Bel Air! Our first order of business was … [Read more...]

Fueling Up For The Long Haul With TANKS INC

August 1, 2022 By Tim King

TANKS INC For The Long Road Ahead There's always a wrong way and a right way to do something. When it comes to a fuel system, this is not something that you want to do halfway right or wrong. For starters, if it leaks then you obviously risk a fire which can quickly engulf your ride and put an end to it. The other side is a system that just doesn't work or starves your engine … [Read more...]

Cooling Like A Champion!

July 28, 2022 By Tim King

Champion Cooling Systems To The Rescue Right now it's summer. It's hot. We feel it and our cars do too. If you're going to drive in the summer or try to survive Power Tour, you need a cooling system that's up to par. Our 1955 Bel Air build has an aluminum radiator and electric fan so it should be good to go, right? Wrong. The no-name radiator fits in the stock mounting … [Read more...]

How It’s Made: CPP Tubular Control Arms

March 30, 2022 By Tim King

Video: Classic Performance Products Control Arms Last year we installed a complete set of CPP Tubular Control Arms on our Project 1955 Bel Air build. Naturally when we took them out of the box, we were checking them out and admiring how nice the welds were and just how well built they seemed. That got us thinking a bit on how exactly does a tubular control arm get built? … [Read more...]

Project No-Name: 79% Increase In Power With TorqStorm!

February 20, 2022 By Tim King

Getting Blown with TorqStorm Editors Note: When I wrote this I totally messed up - actual percentage change is 79% increase in power, not 43% as I originally had.  In our previous stories, we showed you how we grabbed an junkyard LY6 6.0L and built it up to handle boost. That boost is coming from a TorqStorm supercharger! Now we could have used the factory brackets and bolted … [Read more...]

Video Factory Tour: QA1

January 22, 2022 By Tim King

QA1 Factory Tour One thing we really love to see is how products are made. From the design and engineering of it all the way to machining and then the finished product. We definitely take things for granted and just bolt them on the car, not thinking about how much time somebody spent developing it and refining it, along with how they are actually made. One place we've … [Read more...]

Video: The Ultimate 6-Speed Transmission!

January 17, 2022 By Tim King

As the sport of autocross has progressed, so has the technology in it. We all know about upgraded suspension, brakes, engines, wheels, and tires. One thing that really hasn't made leaps and bounds of improvements is the transmissions. Clutch technology has improved as you can see dual and triple disc clutches that have street manners but can handle 1,000+ HP. However the … [Read more...]

Holley In-Tank Retrofit Fuel Pump

October 13, 2021 By Tim King

Installing Holley In-Tank Retrofit Fuel Pump Back in August, we took our 1962 Cadillac on the Hot Rod Power Tour and had a blast. With an LS, A/C, Disc Brakes and lots of other upgrades, this car is a blast to drive. This was the farthest we had ever driven it and naturally a few issues raised up. One of them being a fuel supply issue where the car would sputter, lose power, … [Read more...]

Project Chicken Coupe: Installing QA1 and Baer Brakes

July 17, 2021 By Tim King

When this '83 Cadillac Coupe De Ville aka "Project Chicken Coupe" rolled off the assembly line, it had luxury. What it didn't have was stopping power, or the ability to handle a corner at any speed. Today, we are going to change that and turn it into a Pro-Luxury machine. QA1 is handling the suspension while Baer Brakes is handling the stopping power. QA1 Doesn't Make … [Read more...]

Project Chicken Coupe: Introduction to a 1983 Cadillac Coupe De Ville

June 29, 2021 By Tim King

The Chicken Coupe  By Matt Graves  Pro Touring is an awesome way to build a car, as we all know. When you take a highly desirable muscle car and update it with all the “go fast,” high tech parts, these cars go from lousy handling to high G-Machines. With the advent of the LS engine and all the new suspension technology, Pro Touring cars are mixing it up with the best in world. … [Read more...]
