Wow!
that looks great I am in the middle of putting an LS2 in my 65 Nova what did you use for the front accessory mounts,,GTO? I see the A/C is up high. Trying out the factory truck mounts but I do not like them.

We have been ablt to take it in and out in one peice.But we didnt have the master cyl .on the car then. No mods to the tunnel that i can remeber. Made the rear cross member.Got a tailshaft that allows us to hook up the stock speedo. The drivers header comes in and out one piece easy,that pass side is two peices. The front tubes and rear tubes they go in easy then put on the collector. Thanks Dan

DSE says they are good for a 10-11 wheel with a 315..We cheated them a little and got 18x12's with 335's..We already ordered the wheels before we found the tubs..I HIGHLY recomend them,there quality and instructions are second to none.. The 335's are TIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but i dont think anbody is going to ride in the back much and we braced the panhard bars monts to reduce any flex..I hope this helps..Dan Parker

The air bracket is a street performance..We modified it to fit as close to the valve cover as possible..We had to notch the shock tower still,but you will not have that problem with the after market front.. Thanks Dan Parker

Wow I want that car so bad. haha. I love those bodystyle cars. The 67 is my fav but a 66 is damn nice also. What wheels are those (Budnicks or Centerlines maybe)
