Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

I got some pics of my motor perches that I modified and the transmission crossmember. I got the idea from Matt here on the forum.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

The one on the left is the v8 and the right is 6 cylinder. I had already modified the v8 before I took pic. I just cut the hump off and welded it back in underneath. It gives more clearence for the exhaust manifolds.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Here is crossmember. I notched the member and welded angle back in for support. Now I will mock it up and drill hole for trans mount.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

I installed my new lowering kit from CPP. It was not to bad, the front springs were a little tough. Here is some pics.
