That’s pretty cheap. The wheels sizes fit perfectly.

Thanks,
Jim


Yeah, quite affordable. Unfortunately when our Swedish government have taken their piece by taxes and customs they are almost up to double that :warning:

One last question (for now, LOL) what kind of rims and model? Those are Weld wheels, correct? I think those would look good on my 70 Camaro if I tub it

thanks,
Jim

Well, got started with a new much better tunnel over the weekend.
Will do the sides tomorrow and then take out engine and trans to finish it of and make the panel towards the firewall :thumbsup:

Engine and trans came out yesterday, before I put them aside for a while I decided to get the hydraulic throw out bearing set at spec .200” for my dual disc clutch.

Installed the clutch and started measuring, had to remove some material from the plate between bearing and transmission to get correct play.

Got the tank mounted and a fuelfilter before the hoses got routed.
When the motor gets installed I just have the hoses into the rails and back to regulator left to route.

Been busy a while when building a 489 bigblock for a buddy, hopefully that one is gonna be done in a couple of weeks.

Next weekend is a snowmobile trip with some buddies :up:

Hello!
I had to make some wheelspacers to clear calipers to the spokes.
It turned out to be a little tight to the quarters, a buddy came up with the idea to move the disc and caliper instead so I had some spacers made.

Ordered some new longer stainless ARP hardware to get a longer unthreaded section, had to shorten them a bit.

Much better and fully centered in the tubs again, had to wipe them down and enjoy a beer :D

Nice work on the discs! I may need to use that solution.

Wow that old lathe brings back some memories, I put about 100,000 miles on manual lathes and mill's back in the day :superhack:
