Default Hello from Canada

Hi there my names Paul and I own a 67 Beaumont (Canadian Chevelle)
It's a forever project (seems like anyway) Had the car for over a dozen years.
I've done a lot of suspention upgrading and this year i'm gonna autocross it.
Thats what brings me here.Always looking to improve it. Kind of on a lower budget these days but I love fabbing stuff and making stuff work.


Front end will be getting a lot lower this spring.

Thanks again..

Current build is 454 .030 over, 9.7 to 1 comp, 781 heads with 2.19/1.88 valves and fully ported, performer rpm intake, 850 carb. needs more cam.
3000 stall, t400 tranny with 2 stage shift kit to a 9 inch rear with 3.55 gears.
Suspention is CPP tubular a-arms, hotchkis sway bars and rear control arms.
(looking for new spings and shocks ideas) current ones work "ok"

In the works or soon to come...
Bigger wheels/ tires
Stiffer frame
BIG mini tubs
bigger brakes
Kid size racing bucket in back
Maybe a 6 point cage....More for auto X then drag
