Note the deep pan and bellhousing adapter. We'll be painting the motor and trans the same color as the car. The trans will handle over 900 ft/lbs of torque and features a lock-up 2400 stall converter..

on your website i see tubular lowers that use coilover like mounts... what happened to make you use the stock lowers instead? regardless i dig the whole concept..... but then again i have a soft spot for 70 chevelles

Nice!

What upright is that? C5?

Was the steering arm fabricated too?

Did all this come with the kit?

Good eye!! On my website we used file footage of the Comp G5 setup from SC&C that was installed on a G body. I liked the idea of boxing my lowers and it only added 3 lbs per arm. Also, in my situation tubular lowers wouldn't be benificial to the geometry that was already being corrected. This is the entire kit as you see it.

Marcus fabricated the steering arm and it is a C5/C6 (same part #) knuckle that was trimmed and modified by him as well. He also boxed the lowers for me. He is a phenominal talent in our hobby. I hope you guys see that!

Keith,nice pics! I`m pretty sure that should read +6lbs./pr. for the LCAs though.

Mark,like Keith said the uprights are C5/C6 CNC machined to compliment their use in the package. The steering arms are CNC`d 7075 T-6. It`s all part of the soon to be released A-6 package. Normally it comes with complete brakes,hub/bearing assys. etc. Brakes can range from std. C-5 13" to Baer 6 piston/15". There are several UCA variations also. Marcus

Booyah.

Looks like a great step up over the current B-body swap.

Any prelim pricing Marcus? How about some hard numbers on bump steer / camber gain / RCH / etc?

Also, how is track width and hub height compared to stock/B-body?

Keith, looks great, can't wait to see what you have in store for the rear and the completed car.

Not knocking the package but with all that work how did the RC migration wind up at over 1.5"

. Seems a little on the high side for basically a scratch build. Maybe the PT screen shot on Keith's site is not from this package, in that case please disregard.

BTW, spindles look real nice.
