Keith, I've noticed that you haven't been around much lately - I figured the thrash was on. Good luck, and I'm looking forward to seeing it. :thumbsup:

Hey Keith cant wait to see it!!! :willy: :thumbsup:

The hum in the air over here is retarded......we've had a few catastrophes and a few hero stories I plan on making known to everyone as soon as I can...probably after SEMA. I've had two full time jobs since she came back from paint and body. In fact, I'm only typing now because the chemical stripper is fizzling away our 468's and 4L80E's paint so we can apply a multi-stage. Otherwise I'd be back out in the garage right now!.... :willy:

I really want to make sure that I tell the real story with this car. Not the fluffy love magazine article type but the real deal. All the ****; heartaches, realizations, compromises, impossibilities, interventions, a few good men/women, the unbelievable loyalty of one or two people, and the amazing betrayal of others. This build story could read like a hollywood script and anyone close to me or the project knows that I'm telling the truth here. I plan on making sure that everyone knows exactly what has happened as soon as I actually get the car done. I haven't meant to leave everyone in the dark so standby.....

ATS A-body products are on the stove. Be looking out just after the first of the year.

But dont forget Marcus and SC&C. They do the math....

I feel your pain Keith. I have been thru some of the same stuff. It is truely amazing to me how sorry some of the companies we all deal with customer service is. I am talking well know companies that charge top shelf prices. Good Luck with finishing up and I will see you there. I may need help pushing-lol

That IRS is pretty cool. Man, I change my mind enough as it is. If I had an F Body I don't think I would know what to do with all of the choices. :willy:

Sweet!

It looks good, but you're spending WAY too much money for what you get; a carrier bracket and toe rods/mounts for $1800... you still have to buy your own takeoff C4 rear suspension, which isn't that ideal of a IRS setup in the first place (ever see what happens when the halfshafts break?) Also, you're putting that C4 IRS into a car that weighs >500 lbs heavier than the original application, so you're putting more than the design load onto the components.

The semi-bolt on (some welding) idea is cool, but it's way overpriced IMO and for that price you should be installing something better than a C4 setup. Also, they altered the toe rods on the outer carrier blocks-- was any math done on those new toe rods to see how they affected geometry, or was the only consideration "bend 'em till they fit without cutting the car?"

It does look good though. :P

I have a lot of ideas and plans sitting around to re-do my suspension (homebuilt 3-link out back, 3-4" longer LCA/UCA combo up front, etc) but before I build anything I'm going to pick up another frame and box/stiffen it; by that time there may be bolt-ons out there that do what I want. If not, I'll still build my own.

If its a chassis your looking for, (A-body) look at www.pathfinderchassis.com

They had one of there chassis on display at a show a couple weeks ago and it looked real nice. The whole reason it caught my eye was because they build them for 64-67/68-72 Chevelles and I happen to have a 64 so I had to check into it. I was impressed with the quality and engineering they put into it. They had a LS6 and I believe a T-56 trans if I remember right sitting in it so that also caught my eye. Looked real good.
