Art Morrison Max G Chassis under a 1st Gen Camaro
 

Just got this months PHR and read the AD from Art Morrison.

"Simply drop your car's body over the frame and build a new floorboard. Its a project that do-it-yourself home builders can do! Call now on details on giving your Camaro, Challenger, Chevelle, Dart, Demon, GTO, Nova (or ???) contemporary chassis technology performance."

Ok. Time for some discussion. Questions:

1. Realistically how much work is this?

2. Is this a better all around solution (performance wise) for a 700hp+ Camaro than an aftermarket front clip (WD, DSE, AM, etc.), frame connectors, and a well designed rear suspension?

3. How much would this be in comparison to a completely built DSE or WD front clip and custom rear setup such as a 3 link or IRS?

4. Has anybody actually looked into this at all? If so, please post your findings.

5. If you were planning a ground up build on your car, what would you do?

Talk amoungst yourselves!! :willy:

It will be interesting to see it done... Don't know if it will perform better than the current "methods" ie, SFCs, upgraded front sub, etc...

I keep looking at that, too. I think I'll make a phone call today and see what they have to say about it. I'm curious what the front track width is among other details.

Scott while you are on the phone, see if you can get some $$$ numbers too! I am eager to hear more details.

There's some general info on it on pages 17 and 18 of their 2005 catalog, but I'm still going to call them and see what they have to say about it. I have a few questions, and it does sound interesting.

Sure looks interesting...

Gotta agree with Nutsy. $$$ numbers would be sweet. Thanks for calling Scott.

I spoke with them this morning and got some details, and I see Craig Morrison joined our forum, too. The front suspension has two options, a C5 setup and a tubular control option, each has a different track width.

Nutsy, shoot me an e-mail.

I like that

For about a year I have been doing a little drawing trying to come up with a complete chassis. My pics actually look pretty similar. I have a 67 RS that I plan to build a complete chassis for. I would love to get dimensions on that thing. What are the holes for? wiring, or exhaust?

my plans are to put that chassis underneath a 56 belair, 19's all around and yada, yada, yada.........
