Preparing an Imported 1964 US Valiant Racer to be a Street Legal Car in Canada

John- love the car. I'm partial to 64/65 Valiants.
What are your driving goals for the car? Street only, street-strip?
Here's some ideas for you;
Oil filter- remote oil filter so you don't have to bend yourself into uncomfortable Yoga positions to change the oil.
Exhaust- consider changing the headers to full under chassis models. TTIs or Doug's are the options for our Early As. Expensive but should tuck under the car a lot neater and provide better ground clearance. That said, those fenderwells you have I believe are the largest avail for our cars.

Sorry I missed this. I would like to say my goal is street strip but if I am going to be honest with myself I would say it will only be a street car. I don't own a truck or trailer to travel to the nearest strip. The only time I would take it was if a racing buddy would like to drive it and see what it can do.

Oil filter - I have read opposing threads about relocating the oil filter. Some have good experiences but many do not. I am going to think on that one and it is a good suggestion.

Exhaust - hmmm.... Gone back and forth on this. I am going to leave the fenderwells as is for now. I am only driving this car locally with 10 miles of my place on roads that I know well so I don't bottom out. I will see how it goes. If not, yes I would like to change the headers. I am running 727 so I don't think Doug's will work. Not sure about TTI'S?

Subcom - do you know which model of Hedmans these are? I was trying to find them on their site but could not find the model.
