Looks like it has a torque "line" instead of a curve. That will be a blast to drive!

No doubt, can't wait to get it on the road, it's been way to long!
Thanks

Default Front Drive

Using Drive Junky's front drive system it's a beautiful piece. Great components used on this front drive, Jones steering pump, Edelbrock water pump, Sanyo A/C compressor, Powermaster 165A alt., severe duty idler pulleys. I've included a pic from Drive Junk's website to show the amount of belt wrap on the power steering pump pulley, big concern for me choosing this system.

Also found this video from Kyle Tucker to be informative when using a Mustang II rack and pinion (such as Detroit Speed) fine tuning and flow control of the PS pump. Always looking for less drivablity issues during the shake down period

Building a car takes way longer then we hope. However looking at the pictures has to feel great and it looks awesome !

ps Sometimes months turn into years (( Ask me how I know ))

With the build of my current car I broke it down into multiple version based on time and budget. I am currently working on the 2nd version and I have a 3rd version in my head. What I mean by version is build idea's and stuff I want to do to the car. I learned this after building the Syborg TT truck as it was a ton of money and time, both of which I don't have to seem much of.

After doing the 57 for my dad and the Truck I learned I no longer want shiny paint. I am a huge fan of Boris and the guys at Street Machinery in Ohio. Make sure you build a car that you won't be afraid to drive or lean on.

Exactly why my Camaro isn't getting paint or body work anytime soon.
