The motor you see here used to be in a 5th Gen Camaro that ran 10s in the 1/4 mile and laid down 696 hp to the wheels, roughly around 840 at the crank. Once together the GTO will also head down the drag strip, being lighter than the 5th gen will perhaps hit mid-low 10s.

The rigidity of the frame design makes up for blocking off the floor pan supports. Not sure on the Elky, we need a donor to drop by and let us have a look at the floor pan. El Caminos are on the build list so in time they will be available.

1965_SS- You can see in the pics the stainless fuel tank that we use made by Rick's Tanks. These are available as an option when purchasing a chassis.

$14,500 is the price for a complete chassis and suspension w/9" axle housing with axles. Add brakes, a rear center, and wheels and tires and you have a complete roller. As mentioned fuel tanks, race specific valved coilovers, powder coating, engine mounts, oil pans, headers, etc. ... are available upgrades and add-ons.

Next objective was installing the frame into the car and having a good last look at clearance and suspension geometry at ride height. For this we installed 315 30 18s on the front and 335s out back. Everything is looking perfect and working out just as we anticipated. I know some of you will have questions about clearance and all, hopefully I have everything covered in the pics. If not let me know and maybe I can shoot something specific for you.
