Anyone need a oem subframe! Lol funny how you start a project to be a budget friendly and goes completely sideways. Dam you Lat G and all you guys with cool cars!:thankyou:

GOOD LORD that looks amazing!!!!

Thanks Paul. I'm very happy with the way it's coming out. Feels great to be in shop and doing the work myself. I will say the items I've bought from DSE have been spot on for directions. We all know in building a custom car there's always that part that you buy and go:hairpullout: who designed this!

Templates layed out and floors cut. I figured it was better to order sub frame already powder coated from factory and just touch up with a little paint. Notice the holes I need to weld up from the old drive shaft loop.

All welded up! It was nice to have rust free floors.

Rears on the front! A 315 on the front would be so bad a$$!

It's going to be hard enough to get a 275 to fit.

Yeah you got it bad Rob. Welcome to the madhouse :thumbsup:

P.S. project is lookin' great!

Thanks Ron. I've been following your car since the beginning. Great build glad you're enjoying it on the track. I plan on having the car done by spring so I can get it dialed in for first round at Thunder Hill for Optima. Did the event last year in my 13 ZL1. Ton of fun and meet some great people on this forum.

This thing has a nasty front push on autox! Out on the big track it did a lot better. Or I just suck at autox!lol

So this is the pan my motor came with I don't think this is going to work with my DSE sub frame? I really like the design of the Mast cast pan vs welded steel and the option of the oil cooler lines for future. Another thing I need to pick your guys brains on is long tube header vs mid length but can't seem to pull the trigger on the DSE ones($$$). What are some of your guys thoughts on other headers out their that will fit? Keep in mind this will always be a n/a motor. In my old drag racing day we used to do a step header with a merge Burns collector but that was on a comp or Super stock motor that we were shifting at 9500! Thanks for the input.

Rob

the mast or holley pan should work no problem. for headers if you dont want to spend the money on the dse ones i would look at ultimate headers. they have a long and mid's that should work. mark s runs the mids on JA and hellfire and they have the dse frames. there are some dealers of ultimate headers on here.

Im running stainless works headers and autokraft oil pan clears by a lot
