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
