Some stock dash bar that wouldn't hold nothing. Guess I'll make my own.

That I’m not sure, I know there are some metal ones but I couldn’t tell you what ones do. All mine have been fiberglass. I know a bunch of guys use front clips off of foxbodies, that’s my plan this next build

I got my intake for the 3.8 conversion from efi to carb. Now to find the time to start Following this ran a 3.8 carbed in a Fairmont and was really impressed with how it spun up and how it handled heat

Now to find the time to start Following this ran a 3.8 carbed in a Fairmont and was really impressed with how it spun up and how it handled heat I’m still gathering all the pieces of the puzzle. I got a distributor. Now I’m searching for a control module box, and I’ve got a lead on 3.8 Carb’d heads. Once I get them all I can fully start the conversion will keep this thread up dated.

Got to where I was running donuts on the front so I wouldn’t bend stock struts as bad. Plan on switching to foxbody spindles this year on the front so I can run 14.5” mobile home tires on 14” rims

If a brake sticks on the front you are kinda screwed

If a brake sticks on the front you are kinda screwed driveline brake works. An can be made with out reinforcing housings so even able to run them in most stock style classes. Reason I say that is because I'm not sure you guys rules your building to.
