Started wiring the car today. Big block going in tomorrow, maybe have in running as soon as I figure out gas tank. Should I run a stainless tank, like a Rick's or just run a fuel cell. What is everybody's thought on the look of a fuel cell hanging down. The 20 gallon I have looks a little big, will have to cut the cross member to get it in the trunk. Need ideas?

Hopefully wheels will be here soon.

Wiring looks like a tough one, painless has a plug for the orginal gauge cluster; however, I am running Auto meters.

Default radiator Issue 1968 camaro

Just installed the BBC today, looks good. Wish I could hear it run. I tried to put the radiator in; however, the BBC with Vintage air front runner the Be Cool cooling module will not fit. DSE is saying that they will get me the 1000 hp module and return this one but I will still have to modify the core support. Anybody out there that already done this and can send info. Sucks the radiator will not work from Be cool.

Engine is in, T56 Magnum is in and rear wheels come in Wednesday. Still need to run brake lines, any pictures would help and finish the wiring for the big stuff. At least most everything is purchased now!

Default She is on her feet, Tires! She starts too.

Looks like we are not going to be able to make the LoneStar show this weekend, but we are closer to having a ride to take the kids to shows in, here you go. The ride height still needs to be adjusted.

T56 Magnum is in, it starts, rolls, we are getting closer...
