Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
What is the hp rating on the big block. Only reason I ask is I am trying to figure out what size shaft I need to run with my engine.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
Still plugging away at it . No new pics but the last week consisted of dropping the trans and installing the converter along with a new pan , removed trailing arm crossmember and powdercoated. Reinstalled and bolted up new driveshaft. Headlight assemblies, park lamps are complete . Front bumper is on the way .
I've made a tempory change on the air ride setup for the time being . I'll just control it for now with paddle valves , the Accuair setup will still happen, I'm just trying to get the truck done for CTC in October without bankrupting myself !:lol: I'm looking for a way to mount the paddle valves in a cool way instead of just bolting the panel under the dash . What ideas do you guys have for this ? Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
Thanks gringo , I just noticed your last edit . I'm still racking my brain on this thing and really don't want to spend a bunch of fab and paint time on something temporary . I studied it some more this evening, and realized there is no visible frame on the Teas seat , it's all covered in leather. I think I'll try something where the switch panel just slides out from under the seat on the drivers side .

Some more progress to speak of ! Hood and cowl came back from paint shop and were installed this past weekend. Air ride system is complete. I've still got to replace the door seals so we can do a final panel alignment. Who's got seals that are close to the same thickness as the GM seals.
