Roger, I'm doing an LS3 and I was admiring what you did with Donkey Kong. Wanted to get some advice from you.

1. Can you tell me where you got the fitting and hose for the vapor blocks. I drew a circle on the picture so you can see what I'm referring to.

2. Who makes or were did you get the clamps for the coupler (see arrow)

Thanks for the help!

Al

PS, is Donkey Kong going to be at GNRS?

I got the fittings from KRC racing. They work slick. The hose is the HS-79 hose from XRP. That stuff is cool but spendy.

The intake clamps came from McMaster car, I swear they have everything.

The car will be in out booth at the GNRS with the 48 pickup.

Thanks

Roger, any final completion pic of Donkey Kong?

Loved watching it come together but you have left us hanging for almost a year now. We would love to see how it all turned out.

There are some pics on my website of the car. I can see about putting some more together. We have taken the car to quite a few shows and getting ready to start using the car for what it was intended to do. Drive it and have fun.

We got the stereo set up and getting some interior things set up. Joe Ellis from Classic Wire is coming monday to work on the engine and interior wiring. We will get the AC hoses set up and installed next week. You can see how things were mounted under the dash and how the engine comaprtant is coming along.

My Autorad core support for my 64 Chevelle fit like crap. I hope you have better luck. I may just stick with my original one.

I have never had a single fit up issue with any of the AutoRad core supports. They all have fit great for the ones we installed and I have never had one complaint about any of the many we have sold.

My guess would be that your car might have been in some kid of accident or something to make it not fit. I have never had an issue 1. Did you talk to the guys at AutoRad about how to address your issue?

Yes I talked with them and they made me some new side blocks for the top of the core. This fixed some issues but now the headlight buckets dont fit and I just gave up on it. I have always thought they sent me one for a 66 or 67 but they say no. Have you put one on a 64 Chevelle? Maybe I just need to bring it to you and have you make it fit and do my Mini tub for me at the same time. Your work is outstanding!
