Less than 2 years ago i couldn't weld at all! It's not to hard, just some practice. I'd say I'm pretty proficient at it. My dad is a welder, I started welding on the exhaust on my 383 T56 buick roadmaster a few winters ago, he gave me a few pointers and after that it was just trial and error and practice. But one thing I still struggle with is welding upside down! I HATE WELDING UPSIDE DOWN!!! lol

There were a few at the meet we were at! Though I expect some people to not like it, everyone did! Definitely was not what they were expecting

It's a pig, like 27xx, I'll ask my friend he weighed it. No weight reduction except the front bumper support.

LOL, I wouldn't call 2,700 lbs a pig! Especially when a Fbody weighs what ~3500 lbs.

The spec stage 3 clutch started slipping to much to drive it this weekend and it had to get flat beded home. More bumps in the road! It was suppose to get painted this week to. Should be back on the road in a few days and painted here soon.

what did you use for the alternator relocation it looks realy pro.i have a good idea what you used for the power steering. i am going to be putting an lt1/t56 from a 93 trans am in my 240 so i can use all the help i can get. so far iv found a lot of useful things from mckinney motorsports

but headers are still a problem and clutch hydraulics are a mystery

like will the factory clutch master work? or do you need a 7/8" like the ls1 swaps need?
