Hey Scott, any news on the narrowed chassis? What will the track width be?
I hope to see you and Kevin next month in Texas ans check out the new sub.

Shannon,the narrowed track width front is finished.But the Rack I used doesn't have enough travel to get the steering angle I want.So I am looking for a differant rack to suit my need's.I figured out the header's which I thought would be the big hurdle,but wasn't.Steering is super tight.We can talk in ft.worth next month.:thumbsup:

No,I'm thinking Some of the main componets will machined from billet.Interlock and bolt togather.Smaller pcs. will be cut and tig welded.If I do it will probably only one.Materials have cost a arm & leg.Wanting to buy a smaller machining center if I sell the chevelle.I also have an Idea to do a smaller round tube unit out of 4130.Doing a price, time study,and weight comparison now.I want build something that has some resale value.

Hey Sir,

What off the shelf headers work with your sub? This would be for an LS motor.

Whats going on in Ft. Worth next month,car show?
