    Installing VBP A-Arms?

    Good advice, will do. I didn't even think about it. My buddy runs the alignment shop so he might have realized it and hooked me up at the time but you never want to assume anything. PPP Proper Prior Planning. ;) Chuck

    Installing VBP A-Arms?

    stepinwolf, I was looking at your pic on the steeroid steering setup and noticed you have your shocks mounted to the bottom of the lower control arms and I was wondering why? I am putting mine together now and looks like they should be mounted on the top. Are you doing it to lower it...

    Switching to BB Radiator any recommendations?

    Sorry I didn't answer earlier, it was a busy work day. I definitely want a radiator with side tanks. I would like to free up the spaces behind the inner fenders.

    Switching to BB Radiator any recommendations?

    Thanks guys this was the kind of info I was looking for. Just to make sure I have it right: I want a BB radiator (no expansion tank) for a 66, core support for a BB 65, and I plan on dual electric fans, I also will have Classic A/C so will that make any difference on the core support or...

    Switching to BB Radiator any recommendations?

    Hi all, I want to switch to a bb radiator so I can get rid of the expansion tank. I figure I will need to change to a BB radiator core support. Any thing else I should know? Do they make an aluminum core support? Thanks
