Can we talk budget? Don't be embarrassed... don't be shy. It helps to steer a project if people kind of have an understanding what you're willing to spend on it.

No point in discussing a rolls royce build if you're only planning to build a chevy II.

We've all been here a while... and we've all done plenty of budget builds and or high dollar builds... You'll find no "judgements" made in this forum. You'll just find good friends and lots of knowledge.

Welcome!

Welcome aboard from another novice. I am 80% done with a 65 Corvette and have a 68 in the planning stages. I use this forum daily for informed opinions, along with LS1 tech, Corvette forum, Chevelle Tech, etc. This hobby is a lot of fun but very expensive.

It is impossible to over-research or over-plan. Research and planning costs nothing. To me it is important to establish a mental image of the car and what you want it to do. This will keep your build true as you research components and options for the car. I often got wrapped up in specific components many very expensive, only to return to the original image of the car for final selection.

Good luck with your efforts and goals.
