You're the man Eric.  Sweet score on the rear end. I think you'll be more happy with this one myself.

Looking great Eric, always nice to keep making progress. What did you do to use the CTSV calipers on the rear, did you make your own brackets? Also are you running the same on the front?

yes the last page of the build thread shows the brackets for the front. the calipers are different the fronts are quite a bit bigger the rotors are 14" front and rear though.hope this helps.

ok here we go again it has been awhile since I have had any time to roll on the chevelle the belair took up the summer and the corvette part out is taking longer than planned,however it looks like it is time to jump back to the chevelle.
:plans for this winter are:
: remove body from frame
: install HPI. customs frame kit mod rear frame to accept 345 tires
:fabricate new gas tank
:design and fab up new fuel system
:finish up rear brakes and air ride system.
I should prob. stop now.lol.

just keep building it and have fun.
2nd chance will evolve every 6 months to keep it fresh. It's cheaper then building another car.

is it just me or do these just look awesome or what? I can't even begin to describe how stoked I am to get back to the chevelle! Did not plan on buying and completely parting out a corvette and one holiday celebration after another! finally it is time to really get on a roll I have been picking up parts for a while and my goal is to get some turbo fab. done then pull the body to modify the frame with a HPI. frame kit and lots more!
