    The First photos

    TRUST ME........first time, and was scared to death. But it turned out great. And didn't cost me $5,000 to get it done. Just a lot of blood sweat & tears......and a LOT of time.

    I have one on a 71 small block . And it has also been uo to 8500rpm a few times, so I have no complaint about it. and was easy to put in. But you do lose your tach. I put a SW Tach in the place of the stock one, and it goes up to 10,000rpm.

    How to get some hookers for free!

    I have a full set of the ZL-1 fender flares. That are more panels then just the lips, and was wondering if they are harder to put on then those were ? They are also going on a 71. What size rims and tires are you planning on putting on ??

    aftermarket wheels

    How much of a wheel spacer do you need to put aftermarket wheels on a 1971. Or who makes rims that have the right off-set.
