The package is not much bigger than a present day transmission, which allows you plenty of room to place batteries of your choice. Batteries would add w…[Read more]

Took the Chevette based BCW MG out for a 5o mile round trip and by the time I got home (it was 85 degrees outside) the water temperature was a touch over 230. Id never seen it over 220 before. Inspected system afterwards. Antifreeze level was good but there is a little what looks like corrosion in the corners of the core near the top. No puddles…[Read more]

You wonder what was going through the minds of the original builders on some facets of the build. Maybe he thought by casing the brake line in fiberglass it would be forever protected and never ever a problem. Mine might have been a “Hold my beer. I’ll put that steering shaft in”. Sounds like you had it a lot worse. At least your floo…[Read more]

touche started the topic New holes in dashboard in the forum Chevy/Ford Kits 2 years, 1 month ago
Took advantage of the unusually spring-like February weather to drill a few holes in my dashboard plate. Aligned the headlight, fan and wiper switches all along the bottom and added 2 new big holes for voltage and oil pressure. The radio was replaced last summer.

The 2 brackets in center came with the kit. I had the 2 end brackets made at Goodman Steel in Zanesville. They saved the dimensions in their computer in case anybody else needs them made.Since they were higher profile than the originals I polished them a bit with a wire brush on my drill press.
Inserting one of the brackets inside the rear…[Read more] -
