Default Next installment on the Ultimate LS2 project


Ultimate LS-2 59 Vette project update: the Pulleys and Accessories

If you peeked in on this 59 Vette rebuild to modern project before in my prior threads you would know it was intended as a different approach to rebuilding one of the great classic's. The expensive pulley and dressing kit had a couple major problems in that there was no room for the steering linkage to poke underneath the one corner to the rack AND there was no room for the Radiator hose neck. You don't think those problems slowed progress much do you? The replacement rotor completes the rear brakes and the Primo Stereo arrived. The chassis assembly continues until everything is complete in the test build before tearing it completely apart to paint the frame and other parts. If you aren't familiar with this car search for my prior posts or goto F & R Bodyshop.com and click on the 50 Vette project button, or shoot over on this link here=> 59 Vette Project to see the whole story,

...but here is the latest update. enjoy!

I think they did come up with some estimates, a little heavier than the original, but not much and the weight distribution is supposed to be better, but I don't have those numbers, sorry.
