Thank you for the interest in my project.my plan is to run a t56 trans in it and am on the fence about what clutch can handle 1000 whp. and not be to aggressive to drive every day on the street? hoping to get things on a roll soon so stay tuned in for more.

Scott, I'm with you on this. I got lost on cutting the front. But, as we have seen before in this thread, Eric always comes up with something very interesting and unique.

We've seen the other work he has done. Amazing stuff to say the least.

Our DYAD sounds like it would be a perfect fit for you! Its a dual-disk with nice light pedal pressure, and can hold over 1300 ft/lbs, so it works perfectly for high-power street cars. We offer it with an aluminum or lightened steel flywheel, and recommend the latter for smooth, stock-like driving around town. If we can answer any questions about it, feel free to send us a quick PM.

man i have just been getting my azz kicked lately my wife has been in and out of the hospital,funerals,wakes,helping everyone and there brothers with everything,and a billion other things that have been really slowing down progress on the chassis. but still chipping away a little at a time. bought a splined sway bar that i want to be a off the shelf bars and bushings and the frame is wider than my Belair so i decided to make it tuck so i can get as wide of tire as possible. more modifications! i even got my son to help me for a while and learn how to bend a 3/4 thick steel arm to better fit the contures of the frame.and also machined a couple of 3/8 thick pieces for the sway bar on a old school mill.

wow I guess it has been a while since I updated this thread life has just kicked the crap out of me again for the last few years and I feel like every time I get back up someone is there with a hammer to knock me back down again! I am hoping that I can get back on a roll and get the chassis done soon. here is where it is at now.

second try on the sway bar mods to get it to tuck in.

Glad your back on it and yes sometimes life wins and you just have to put stuff on hold.

I know you know that can be true Marty! hope everything is good with you too!
I hope to really get rolling again and make progress for a change!

my new plan is to move the motor back another 2 to 3 inches, move the front suspension and crossmember up, design and fabricate a torque arm rear suspension with a watts link and get the motor mounts back on again!
