    rear disc using weld-on/bolt-on caliper brackets ?'s

    yep, same that already come on the front... $22 from AZ without core... not for sure, just an idea... could you just run a single outlet from your M/C and then split it to front and rear since the calipers and geometry would be the same? OR do you need the rear to be significantly less under...

    iceman radiator support

    blownbigblock: hood pin springs? why didn't I think of that... where did you get them? You still have room and mountability of your A/C condensor? And what about those steel braided lines for it... Where did you get them... them is slick? Was the radiator support hard to put in? Any extra fab...

    Tremec TKO-600 (2)

    well right now I have basically a stock internals GM crate 350... it builds power perfectly right at or right above 1000 RPM.... but, I guess once I upgrade the new engine won't behave anything like that. I am mainly concerned with MPG... I am trying to build this car with the ability to drive...

    Tremec TKO-600 (2)

    well crap... me being the indecisive person that I am and always wanting to do the best thing... I got that itch again to try to put a T-56 in instead of the TKO-600. based on all my calculations and trying to get the shifter in the perfect position and get the best MPG and strength and...

    rear disc using weld-on/bolt-on caliper brackets ?'s

    anyone know where I can get a picture of 3 and 4 bolt axle flanges to see which one I have? Or can you see all four bolts from the view from the inside of the wheel opening without taking the drums off? And then, does anyone know of any weld on/ bolt-on/ clamp-on caliper brackets that fit a...

    cable operated clutch (idea!)

    well the one's from a mustang are pull cables that pull on the fork forward... the geometry setup won't work for GM's... I figure if you get one that is like 8 of 10 or even 6 ft long, that it would reach around and be able to pull from the back... it's built to be a push cable, so it may be...

    cable operated clutch (idea!)

    Anyone ever thought of runing a cable operated clutch using a cable like this one... http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=BMM%2D80835&N=700+4294925134+4294839069+4294822071+115&autoview=sku... in place of the linkage or hydraulic operator? I figure on the eyelet end...

    rear disc using weld-on/bolt-on caliper brackets ?'s

    So what about a parking brake setup at all when using the S-10 rotors? is there a parking break setup from the S-10 that will transfer over, like the internal brake shoes on the inside of the rotor?

    621 Bell and Fork?

    ya, that was my main question is if the fork interfered with the floor/firewall... I figured that if it didn't, then the pushod could just be altered to fit. Ever looked to see how much the floor would have to be pushed in to get it out of the way? Do you think this will interfere with the...

    rear disc using weld-on/bolt-on caliper brackets ?'s

    awesome... that part would help a lot. I need the wheel spaced out a little anyway. so is there anyway to install or run a parking brake on this hub once this camaro rotor is on? I am going to have a manual transmission here in about 2 months and am giong to need one.

    rear disc using weld-on/bolt-on caliper brackets ?'s

    ooh good point... that control arm mount is right there... so I end up with either the bolt on or the weld on... and the rotors? they will just bolt on the hubs and go? no changing axles or anything? what about backing plates? necessary? where do I get those? from the s-10 as well? I know...

    rear disc using weld-on/bolt-on caliper brackets ?'s

    What's the spacing of the caliper bolts for the g-body? I haven't gotten under it to look, but I figure if I could get the whole set up for pretty cheap using stock parts, then it would be totally worth it. What about these clamp on style? http://www.pitstopusa.com/detail.aspx?ID=2120 or...

    rear disc using weld-on/bolt-on caliper brackets ?'s

    has anyone tried or know anything about using caliper brackets like these? http://www.speedwaymotors.com/1969-1977-GM-CALIPER-BRACKET-3-TUBE,3346.html They seem pretty straight forward, but what vehicle has a the correct stock rotors and calipers in simplest form to go on these brackets if I...

    edelbrock carb problem

    I have the 1406, which is the electric choke version of the 600cfm. Edelbrock always ships their carbs rich out of the box, so keep that in mind in relation to what your engine size is and can intensity. I had to lower the jet level and the metering springs a notch to get it good on my 260 hp...

    not garaunteeing anything, but I got an 83 cutlass too and almost all g-body stuff underneath the body panels is the same. That's why I love it and will never sell it. but if you are still unsure, here's Iceman's e-mail, hit him up, he's great at responding... [email protected]
