Has anyone installed these on a Chevelle? Wondering how much additional effort to stuffing these in a gen 1?

Don't know about Dynacorn, but DSE doesn't make tubs for a Chevelle. Or are you asking has anyone installed the Camaro/Firebird ones on a Chevelle? I sure wished DSE did make them for a Chevelle. I called them a while ago and asked them if they even had any plans to make some for a Chevelle and they said no.

ABC Performance said they are close to releasing the 68-72 chevelle mini tubs.

I hope "close" is real soon, because I definately need them running a 20x13, 345 in the rear.

I used a set of the oer mini tubs on my 67. They were prebuilt minitubbed wheel houses for '69 camaro but I just replaced the 69 outer panels with the 67-8 I had.

I haven't rolled the fenders yet but mocking up a set of wheels gives me 14" of space. I'm planning to run 315's so I'll have plenty of space.

I didn't see the DSE tubs sold separately, but if they come with instructions and templates that will be the way to go.

Everyone seems to compare at the 12 o'clock postion. I have the dynacorn tubs on a 69 camaro which measure at 10 o'clock 13.5" - 12 o'clock 14.5" - 2 o'clock 14". It looks in pictures that the DSE tubs cut into the frame rails more. Mine only goes about half way (the narrowest part of the frame is still 1" wide). This is where I think the main difference between the two are at the 10 o'clock position???

I'm curious what the DSE tubs measure in the different positions. If someone with a 69 camaro and DSE tubs could take a couple minutes to measure, then everyone will know the difference.:thumbsup:

Although this thread has been napping for 3-4 months I am curious if the Dynacorn tubs mentioned are the same as OER or different?

At the end of the day the DSE may well be the way to go especially if the novice like myself wants some advice through the install or wants to jump in armed with templates.

I figured I would ask because Summit Racing was on PowerblockTV awhile back promoting the OER ones for a First Gen Camaro. I can't tell you off hand which episode of Musclecar it was during because I dvr them and rarely take time to watch them.

What about the Chris Alston Chassisworks tubs. Plus you can get all the metal pieces for when you notch the frame rail. Anybody try these on a
69 Camaro?

John .... I just bought the kit for my 67 and the mini tubs don't fit for crap :bang: :bang: See my thread with the pictures (page 50)or the Imageshack link below, I'm working with the sales people now .... we'll see!

I found out that the close out panels are for 68-69 not 67's ..... that would be nice to know before ordering.

GOOD LUCK !!!! Should have just bought DSE and made my own close out panels WHICH I have to do anyway .... RRRRGGGGGGGGGGGG!

Vortech404 04-30-2013 05:59 PM

Sonar Chief,

Thanks or the feedback. I still need to order my mini tub.

Looks like it might be DSE. Is the problem you are having just because you have a 67. Are the people with 69's having the same problem?

Any word rom them yet?
Thanks for the heads up.

John
