RPM 1,190 Report post Posted August 25, 2015 Pretty bada$$! Ya do know you have the coolest motor ever don't ya? Nice choice of heads, Jon Kaase is a genius. Probably not too many other choices though. Is it a Z Code or did you have to trim the shock towers. Tell us about the rear suspension, and any chassis mods made to control that monster motor. Welcome to the forum, we've got a bunch of friendly folks here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jetmech 3 Report post Posted August 25, 2015 Thanks guys ... The car has extensive tower mods ... Upper control arms have been lowered 1".Full cage with down bars help tie things together. Rear suspension consist of a narrowed 9" with mini tubs.Coil over shocks with an adjustable ladder bar suspension help but the power to the ground .
