I am just blessed with a great crew that can get the job done…
I just wanted to say that anyone with eyes can spot numerous differences in the spots where things can even be that different from the OE.

I always follow your threads and enjoy seeing what you are up to. Also, put some of your parts on your website so I can just impluse buy them, it's worth your while because I do that sort of thing a lot!

All that space and only a teeny-tiny LS motor to put in it. You know what would look great in there?!?! Coyote 5.0.

Do it! You know you want to.

Here are a few updates on the 70 Chevelle.. We currently have 3 Chevelle’s going on @ the same time & will have similar fabrication on them.. So the 70 is ahead of all 3.. The machine shop is machining some custom fitting that we are standardizing with all our custom tank fabrication for Over flow & Inter cooler tanks
