I have a 61 HT that I"m doing a frame off to ,to make a super driver. Here what I have done so far.
1 409 cu in all alu LS 1 installed. headers made,Box frame so they go tru frame with a S pipe. Muffers installed at rear behind wheels.
2 Step lower ball joint 2 in to lower and can use stock spring and no drop spindles. Also fixes camber gain. { radial tires need this}
Can you tell I"m a old oval track racer.
3 80's Marlo Carlo sway bar, no problem with steering box even use org. a-arm tabs,move them closer to ball joint.
4 Had a hard time on what rear to use, 9 in ford or a 10 bolt using a 10 bolt allready has 3.42 and posi. Heck is not going to have nothing but street tires on it.
5 This one was hard for me. Had a 6 speed already in it work Great drove it about 5 miles before I tore it down.It was slick!
also had a LT1 in it then. I am going with a 200-r 4
6 Has 4 wheel disc brakes.
I know most of you all do not like modified these cars,But I love making parts for them and I drive them a LOT.
I going to DRIVE this one from Va. TO lake Tahoe Hot Aug Nights N RT out S RT back. Once in a life time. NO Trailer
When its done, I need to find the right 62 2 dr sed for my 09 been looking.
Have a Merry Christmas Everyone!
