Little more work this weekend. Got the BIGBRAKEUPGRADE brackets for the front, and installed. Everything looks good now.
Still Waiting on a bent metal for the trans tunnel.

Thanks for looking

Love the brakes and I think I will eventually get a set.

The only problem waiting, is that they don't make the LH backing plate anymore. I had to find some on EBAY, and also found the calipers at the same time.

My goal was to use as many factory parts as I could in this build.
Thanks for looking.

One thing that you might want to keep in mind is that when you use a fixed caliper there is going to be some pad knock back when using a hub with tapered bearings. Modern cars that use fixed calipers have hub assemblies.

So a little update. Been working on the coil mounting and the routing of the wiring harness. Also, the breakdown of the harness, and how they plug into the computer.

My plan is to run all the wiring for the ECM and engine through bulkhead fittings to ease the process of installation and removal if that ever needs to happen.

Copied the Stielow mounting of the coils like he did on the Hobbs Camaro.

The family decided to get me the Lokar big block style valve covers for my birthday. My son was in on leave, and made that happen.

Ended up having to get another intake to make the Lokar valve covers work with my injectors. There just wasn't enough room to plug them up.
