Recipe for Pro-Touring

[Teetoe_Jones]

Here is one way to whip a fresh Pro-Touring basket of goodies:



Take one 67 Camaro-

Shake well, until all loose, old, crusty suspension falls out-

Take 1 tall deck big block, 2 engine plates, and a McLeod modular bellhousing and sprinkle them onto the front end-

(Note some firewall clearance may be needed. In case of engine setback, subsitute factory pedal mounting with Tilton unit)

For optimal results, place engine behind front axle centerline-

For a topper, try adding a set of 20x10 and 20x13 wheels-

I like looking at pretty pictures. Thanks. Where do the forward links of the rear suspension mount? I assume you will open up the firewall, yes?

[Teetoe_Jones]

The 4 link portion mounts to a bracket not yet welded in. It goes between the frame rail and the inner fender.
The firewall and tunnel will be removed for this car.
It is coming along nicely. As soon as the other 3 wheels/tires show, I'll pop it on the ground for a nice look, then off to the body shop for a few months.

Cool!...I those half shafts are ready for battle against the torque of that big block!....nice work.

[Teetoe_Jones]

I have a pair of Carbon Fiber half shafts on the way, along with full Guldstrand camber kit, 4 link bars, and tie rods. It will hold as long as those 20 wheels never hook!
