It will be hard to put one of Steve's BB in that thing and call it a 327 so....Ya, Sherwood can get the 'Shadow' to work a big stick to fit, and that old Nitro kit from the Pro guy will work fine. DB has a crate motor on order that you can use. Check and see if old Northwind has a valve train, also W.S. has some parts....more later. |

Front suspension apart for a freshen-up......bushings, control arm shafts, ball joints, etc. Will also treat it to some lightweight disc brakes. Once that's back together the motor will go back in:

Rich, the round stock is 3/4". With a .750 counterbore, I went .125 deep in the plates as a register for the round stock, faced off the ends of the round in my lathe, drilled and tapped the ends of the round 1/4X20 and used a standard 82 degree countersink for the flat head Allen screws. You could also just have it TIG'd and simplify the deal.
Took longer to clean up the chips than make the part. Not really....... -Al

What brake components are you going with? We ended up having to space the m/c off the firewall using the Bickel piston rod kit...had a high pedal and it was not fully retracting. http://www.jerrybickel.com/brake-kit...-jbrc1064.html
