Re: 69 Chevelle
Yes it is way better than what is used to be. But customer was just one of those guys with no respect so i parted ways with him. He couldnt respect a loss in my family, thought his car was more important and thats what drew the line for me. Family is First in anything I do.

Re: 69 Chevelle
Brandon, sorry to hear of your loss, my best to your family. As always I have a lot of respect your mechanical talents, that motor looks clean enough to eat off of.

Re: 69 Chevelle
Engine looks great! Car needs more low. So clean on the outside with such a beautiful engine, I hope the guy does something about the MC/Booster.

Re: 69 Chevelle
Yeah i had everything ready to get order. Was going to go with a full cpp tubular suspension and big brake package. One of there pro-touring kits but thats all up to him now. Thanks for the comments on my engine work had many stresful hours into it. Just to route those plug wires under the sanderson headers was a pain! Then since he never wanted to upgrade from the small radiator it had cooling issues one of the heads cracked so i tore it all apart twice. Made him pay for 2nd tare down due to him refusing to upgrade cooling system
