Default Can you ID this K member?

I suspect it's was built by a small shop somewhere. Found it under a table at the World Drag Expo.

If anybody recognizes it... Post up. If not, what do you think of it? Thanks

Nevermind I just pulled up their site and theirs doesn't have the curved tube. What is it going on? PA Racing, Spohn, BMR, AJE all make one.

It's going on my 94, if it fits. If not - I could sell it for scrap for what I paid for it. Hehehe

Pretty sure those are LS1 mounts and I think it's setup for a stock rack. Now if I can just find out if it's chromoly or MS...

It might be one of the ones left over from the Racecraft/Machine Works partnership.
I know that Bruce Hemminger had listed some that were left over. They were all 93 to 97 LT1 units.

I have a racecraft in the garage but it's too cold to compare it with the pictures.

Check out racecraft.com to compare

i think you nailed it. it does look exactly like the racecraft except the one he purcheased is for an LS1 for sure. the LT1 mount took 3 bolts like the on in the racecraft pic and had fifferent mounts on each side. the LS1 takes 4 bolts and has identical mounts on each side.

I hope so... It looks like they only make them in CM. I sent the pics to them so maybe they can tell me for sure. Looks like the trip out in the cold may have been worth it... Got a smokin deal on it...

I got there about 915. We were just walking around looking at all th BBC stuff that was there. Second pass down one aisle at about 1030 I saw two k members laying on the floor under a table. The guy said it was for a 3rd gen??? He seemed unsure so I offered him $75 for it. He said $80? I said sold...
