Aussie 68 valiant sedan build, blow through small block!!
few update pics!
got both sleeves in the axle ends ready for pressing into the housing, bevelled the edge and plug welded.
quickly made up some adjustable shackles and spring saddles, ill play with angles and stuff down he track. the top bolt is greaseable through the hole in the chassis rail.
got all my front end painted up, fitted the CM front brakes, just waiting on some long 1/2" wheel studs and nuts so I can bolt the wheels on
and finally stripped all my doors and bootlid back to bare metal, welded the chrome strip holes and etch primed ready for a light skim of filler and blocking back.
Almost all of the fabwork is done now so me and the missus are wet sanding and masking up the main body next Saturday ready for paint!! cant wait for some colour on the big girl, then I can get the hoodlining, carpet, windscreens, rear lights and bumper etc fitted up.
Im also definitely moving to efi (ive sold most of the carb stuff so no turning back haha) throttle body is on the way, ill be running a haltech to control both the fuel and ignition, modded dizzy for a cam signal, LS1 coils, MSD crank trigger, 1000cc+ injectors, aeromotive reg and A1000 pump. running on E85 it should move along well
Thanks mate!:D
