Thanks guys we appreciate it. The Dakota Digital install was very smooth, we have great luck with their products in our builds.

You guys are doing some beautiful work here, I like the color combo.

Great work guys! Love all the great detailed pictures. How does the MSD compare to the GM harness? Looks like you have to use a cable operated TB not fbw?

I believe the 66-67 A bodies look outstanding in white. Maybe biased though:yes:
Thanks for sharing guys!

Thanks for the compliments everyone, we really appreciate it.

We really like the MSD fuel injection set-ups over factory GM, we convert nearly all of LS installs to MSD...with the PC being inside the fuel rails it makes for a much cleaner install, and they tune easily.

And yes, we also like to use MSD throttle body which is drive cable, not wire.

Take care

Here we are putting on the hood hinges, and shooting the underside of the hood to semi-gloss before installing it.

Our customer wanted something a little different, so we converted the black accents to grey on the front and rear of the Chevelle.

Should tie in well with the interior and top.

Looks great!
My 65' is white with blue interior just like that, the gray carpet and dash looks nice.
What is the rear rim width and backspacing?
Thanks!
