I haven't figured out the steering joint situation yet, but I did get the engine mounts finished. The reason for making my own was to offset the driver's side mount to the rear for clearance of the steering shaft bushing coming through the frame from the rack. I canibalized the CPP mounts for the tube that the Energy Suspension mounts to with a 1/2" bolt. Centered. Full bubble. Burn it in.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Looks cool. What about a pic of the mounts installed?

Progress is looking good,Ive been watching this one for a while.Good luck in Fla.My family and I went to Disney in April and it sure was packed but I guess you have to expect that,If I have one piece of advice it is to get there when the parks open in the morning.Be safe.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Shrunken, I'm going to be using an LS2 and No Limit's R&P on my '66. Do you think there would be any interference issues with notching the crossmember to drop the engine/trans lower?
From this pic it looks like there's room for maybe a couple inches? I imagine that it would be tough fitting headers around the frame rails if it was dropped any more. Thanks in advance. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/a...1&d=1339134485 |
Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Dude...
As always great work....one of the best 64-66 threads there is....you have great vision |
Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
move the engine back to get away from the cross member and get a different pan. Better weight distribution and center of gravity. You will need to deal with your firewall though.
Autokraft has a nice pan for an LS. http://www.autokraft.org/products/ |

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Been looking thru the thread. Everything is looking great. I just saw that you pulled the front fender back 2in. I am doing the same thing just never saw anyone do it. Always thought that front needed to come back. I havn't done mine yet so now I have a visual. Thanks. Also what are the tire sizes on the front. I know they are 17's but I like the side wall height on yours and im getting my wheels next week. Thanks for all the info with this build.
