2012 gm accent color---WA733J.....ppg# 301371......Don't raze me that the 6.0 looks crooked--It's loose in front waiting on new mounts!!.....:sexy::sexy:

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Very nice quality build. Love that paint color and thanks for sharing. Curious which Vintage Air unit you used that tucked up so nice under your dash. Also, I see you are using the 14 inch Corvette front rotors. What is your disc brake solution for the rear? I have been looking into the Wilwood but trying to find a more economical solution.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

You da man! Thanks!:metal:

Thanx----have to look but I think its the gen 3--but the tuck is do to taking out the "shoe" in the upper pass. kick panel--allows the unit to raise--also dash is 2 1/2 " lower than stock--Rears are 14' corvette also--I have a kit from board member to install on "truck" 12 bolt (for sale in parts board now)
but ended up having a Moser rearend built with c-clip eliminators so I bought new kit from Tobin at Kore3--nice guy--VERY smart---Bought the entire brake set up from Boris--way2lo--Tobin has it whole kit too---Brakes were not cheap but came with everything but rear mounting kit and inboard parking brake---that's the kit I got from Tobin.......will post pics tomorrow of Kore 3 kit..........jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

I totally agree with the product and customer service from Tobin at Kore 3. I put him on the top of my list and will recommend him also.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Here's the Kore 3 kit for Ford big bearing ends on 12 bolt--rearend should be here this week...Hey Mike did u check out this engine cover off of Ebay?? New in gm box --2012 camaro--$42.77 to the house --may not use it but couldn't pass on it ...It will swapmeet for $90-100................jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Oh Man! Love it! Keep er Going! WOW

Motor looks awsome and that dash and frame.....wow

Can't wait to see more!

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Well---My man Nate came thru again--just got these new truss bars which lower 6.0 by 3/4"--worked beautiful--All of this was to try to get the most clearance for big azz 4l80--Engine has f-body pan--clears back of rack by 1/16th to 1/8--This is a nice setup now--should be the same for all extreme dropmembers ----back of f-body crank pulley will clear front of rack--vintage air frontrunner should work well--will know shortly.......jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
