It was so much fun to run with you and Paulette on GG Hall of Fame! Can't thank enough for your help with my A/C issue... Didn't think I'd ever have to "hot wire" an A/C unit! LOL
Love the Don Hardy Race Engines built LS3 in the '33.... not a single drop of oil... not a leak... fires up and ready to go regardless of how hard we drove them. Come to think of it -- I think it was 4 of us pretty much leading the pack for the tour -- and we all had LS motors! WTF - we even had a LS powered '49 Caddy on the tour! XOXO |

That is where I want my rear to be, but mine is at 25 3/4". I have a 29" tall rear tire, and with the QA1's that I have I can't see how to get it lower. Did you notch the floor at all above the rear end? If I were to drop mine lower it would hit the floor where the two upper control mounts are on top of the pumpkin. Right now I only have maybe two inches of clearance. The floors in my car are absolute virgin perfect, I don;t want to be the one to cut them after all these years. Thanks for the time to measure for me. Much appreciated. |
Didn't cut anything........I'll take some pic's tomorrow.....

Update....... Didn't drive the car much this year, been driving the Impala all over..... Took the Chevelle out last week for a local show..... the car ran perfect as usual... On the way home after getting off the highway I noticed the engine was running rough...... Humm!!!!..... I was 10 minutes from home so when I got the car in the garage (no check engine light) I plugged the scanner in and no codes....... Hummm!!!!!......Used the infared heat gun and shot all the Header pipes...... #3 cyl was showing no heat....... Humm !!!!....... Put a spare coil on and started it up .......Same thing......Pulled the spark plug and it looked O.K........ Checked for spark and everything good......Hummm!!!!!......Got Air....Got Spark..... Fuel????...put a Noid light on the plug on injector #3 and everything good....... Hummm !!!!...... The only thing that made any sense was that the injector went bad (36,000 miles)....... Ordered a new set and put them in and the car run's perfect again......... You never know...... LOL

Thanks for the update Ken. Not a really common occurrence I would think, injectors generally last a lot longer than that. Appreciate you posting up the steps to determine what had failed.

Awesome car and build, I went through the entire thread. What radiator manufacturer and fan set up did you use. I’m in the process of replacing the radiator and fan set up on my 66? Thanks.
