What did U do to your G-body today??

[Doober]

Lookin' forward to pictures I'm still unsure what I'll want to do, may wind up with aftermarket spindles whenever I do a brake upgrade, who knows... then I'll revisit the wide 17" wheels.

here im told gasseer stuff is cheap.... to take my current ~360/525 fw hp/tq 468BBC (got about 2500-3000 when i did it) to ~500/600 i got to spend ~3000 between heads and a HR camshaft and related items.. and still maintain very good street manors and MPG and 87 pump gas... and thats with still OEM rods and crank, hyper piston.. i have a R/A capable of 800hp in the machine shop ~1500.00 plus ~1500.00 worth of machine to the virgin block and R/A (deck, bore, balance main)... for that money i can put a dmax get ~50% more fwhp (~650-700fwhp) out of it just by tuning... and 1.5-2x better mpg.... and still keep my 5000rpm redline!.....

Finished sorting the Lokar shift linkage out and dropped the rear out of the car...with disturbingly low effort...I must be wiser now that im older

pressue washed the car.. to get alot of dirt and oil off it.. (rear main leaks) and search out new rust holes... picked up a ram powergrip 11" 1 1/8x26 clutch and PP.. re doing the exhaust with 68610 BBC shorty headers and dual 3" exhaust.. fix fuel tank leak.. replace PS pump.. ungrade the line to FPTE
seams like the easy way to fix this is mini tub..... right rear wheel

Started building a new core support out of 1" x 2" box tubing using the factory ends that bolt to the fenders due o the fact that I want to leave the factory hood bump and they have a 1" x2" cavity spot welded underneath. I don't know if it will be any lighter but I'm sure it will look better.

tested out the new trans/rear combo...yep its still a 229
