Looks great!!

Well, we came up with a very elegant solution Kerry...you'll have to check it out this weekend. Couldn't be simpler. Not something that you could incorporate into the Chevelle though.

Appreciate it Chris! Sure get a lot of looks and thumbs up. Hope to just get thru the weekend with it, mainly to learn a few things. We ended up getting another spot so we are dual registered..nothing like beating it like a rented mule the first weekend :lostmarbles:

Dad and I fixed a few things on the Elco this weekend . We then took it on its first trip that we felt we could beat on it . Wound up getting it sideways a few times , made the tires rub a lot on the inner fender wells and spewed some coolant in my buddies driveway after flogging it a bit to hard . I thought beating on it like a rented mule was why we built these things :)

Hope things go well for you !

But hey, I did the same thing with the Chevelle...had just over a hundred miles and took it to the Motorstate Challenge. Went over 110 at Gingerman, ran countless autox runs, did the cruise and came back in one piece! Hope we have similar luck. Thanks Mike.

Well good luck this weekend Aaron! I was hoping to cruise over and hang out for awhile but I just noticed the event is Friday and Saturday. I have to work both days, was planning to come out on Sunday.
Maybe I can catch up with all you guys at NCM event if your all there, and maybe even catch a ride:rolleyes:

Have fun this weekend!

Your trick billet air filter turned out great. Very cool.

Wow I just read this entire thread and what an awesome project. I hope to make it out on Saturday to see the car in person.

I'm not sure about NCM as it's the following weekend. MIS is planned and Motorstate in July. Thanks Chris.
