Call me if you need wire front wheels and tires or 12" wide Goodyear slicks,

id like to run 7.0 pro and run NE1 with the Nor Cal Nostalgia Eliminator group unless they get 7.0 class rolling. ill prob run MM, CHRR, and whatever races at sac they have for Heritage Series.
i have set of new wire wheels from you to sale that i was going to use on it before i found a killer deal on the weld's. The welds are not 'vintage' looking but neither is the chassis either as its more modern style.
thanks Bruce, thats a great idea and ill do that. im going to get some more paper and make few different heights and check it out.

To cut my windscreens, I set up a tri-pod with a cross-hair lazer, it will line around a curve, just "dot" with a sharpie along the line and finish off when flat.

frustrations of new build... :o :o ??? >:( :(
figured it would be best to bring the KB over and drop in to see what problems might arise.. a few.
* /wanted to see if we could do on board starter and it will not work. i think the issue is not enough room on this chassis. so external blower or some other configuration will have to be done.
*
* oil pump that came with the KB will not work. actually about the only thing that will work is an adapter plate to external "something" so need to figure that out. what type of pump, where to mount, etc
* lastly is the head on the right side, it hits the firewall below are a few pics. so Jeff painfully took off 1/4" but then i put the cowl on and it really needs another 1/4" to be safe. this is cutting into the freeze plug hole. he cut to the freeze plug and didn't want to cut anymore as he has no idea how far in the plug could go if it could go any, will prob use these heads on a street car down the road, and also the frustration of having to widdle on brand new heads. so, the delima is what to do. the head needs to be relieved straight up to allow the body to slip on and off. right now, if we could stick a 1/4" spacer in between motor plate and motor that would help a bunch but i have no clue on the flex plate, how this will affect torque convertor/ trans interaction, etc. dont really know what to do here. but 1/4" spacer plate would be easiest if it all would work. maybe space the flext plate out? idk if thats a legitimate thing to do etc.
so the head is probably the major road block then the pump. pump is no big deal and starter isnt either.. just cost money over being able to run on-board and wetsump pump which is quite a bit.
here are some pics.
here you can see how much needs to be cut without the body.
here you can see where he cut but with the body, it needs more. plus needs to cut up so body can come off.
