Cool, Frank and the boys will knock it out in record time I'm sure. Have them look at your driveline anlge, looks excessive to me.

Optical Illusion?
 
Car looks great. Just curious how many degrees that motor tilted back?

I know cameras can be deceptive, but that picture makes it appear to be rather dramatic.

It’s not an optical Illusion! It is tilted back, just another reason I pulled it from the last shop. I was getting tired of paying $55 an hour to a bunch of amateurs. I have confidence that Frank and crew will get it right.

Check out this picture!

Frank will take good care of you. I really dig that interior that Ben drew up for you.

Question: are you using the CAC motor mounts and tranny crossmember?

Good to hear from you Carl…sorry I missed you at SEMA last year!

Yes, the transmission cross-member is from CAC. I forget which engine mounts they used, I am guessing they are the ones that came from Turnkey engine supply.

Great decision to go with Prodigy. Frank and his guy's have seen it all and fixed it too.

11 Year Update
 
6 Attachment(s)
How about an 11 1/2 year update to this build thread? I bought the car from Mark over 3 years ago. It was "finished" but hadn't really been driven much and had sat a bunch. My plan was to make a few changes to make it "mine" and drive the heck out of it. What drew me to the car was the fact it is cosmetically is a clone to my real matching numbers 69 RSZ and the quality of the build and components.

First change needed was the auto had to go and was replaced with a T56 Super Magnum 6 speed from Chevrolet Performance. At the same time several other items popped up that needed attention either to failure from sitting, old technology or improper installation. The list is long but included: new radiator (leaked), new master cylinder (leaked), custom CAI (too high of intake temps), Holley Terminator X ECU (old technology ECU), reroute throttle cable (would stick wide open on occasion), new headers (insufficient ground clearance), new mufflers (inside resonance), rebuild of rear coilovers (one leaky shock), new sway bar (cracked due to improper modification), new e-brake cables (cut too short to function properly), new fuel sending unit (old tech, inaccurate), new power window kit (generic poorly functioning system), new wheels (improper backspacing, rubbed), new tires (road noise and rode like it was on wagon wheels) and a few other items fixed or replaced/repaired or changed due to preference.

The car is reliable and a pleasure to drive now. We drive it often and have put over 6,000 miles on it mostly in the last 18 months.

Very nice! Glad to know you're out there putting miles on it. Enjoy!
