[NOT A TA]

My interior was red when I got my car and I like the old school black vinyl look so I changed the interior color. My console came in the car(with the standard issue cigarette burn holes) and I repaired it with a vinyl repair kit from The Eastwood Co. before dying it with S.E.M. vinyl dye (I have mixed atmy local paint shop) shot with a jamb gun.

Sure mini tub it! I was just warning you not to try to go too wide with the tires without doing the tubs since you said you'd be carrying a full load of people. I get away with 315's in the rear without any mods at all but if I carried 4 adults and extra weight I'd probably cut the tires on the fender lip.

As far as suspension Mark pretty much nailed that. I wish I'd done solid body mounts instead of the polys and weld in connectors instead of the bolt in ones. I'll change them both eventually but for now the car works fine and I'll spend the money on entry fees!

I'm taking my car in to get the front end realigned in the morning. When I replaced all of the steering and suspension parts I used the recommendations from Hotchkis for the settings when using their springs, sways etc. and I'm wearing out the outside edges of the front tires using the car on road courses. I think maybe the camber isn't right but I'm no front end guru. I'm gonna have the front set up with Marks specs and try them out since he was kind enough to post them.

The engine in my car is a Pontiac 400 I pulled from a GTO clone build that burned up I bought and parted out a couple years ago. '75 block, '68#16 heads,Canton RR pan, MSD pro billet W/6A box & Blaster 2, Speed Demon on Edelbrock fed by Holley Blue, Flowkooler pump,Performance Products balancer. Nothing really powerfull or exotic just solid reliable performance. I use a 2.41 rear for high speed stuff and a 3.73 for drags and short stuff and have a couple different sets of wheels/tires.

I like your scoop chop! It'll give your car a different look.
