I have ran a few Hughes Engines cams that make good power.

BB HYD FLAT TAPPET 222/226 110+3
HUGHES "REAL" 6 PACK CAM AND 440'S WITH CAST IRON EXHAUST MANIFOLD
You have a lot of corrosion there - and it looks to be between the contact rivet and the shell of the resistor - giving potentially the bad connection that is causing all your problems.
Same here. I love to paint outside the lines and do some things different than what is OEM. I see nothing wrong with trying new things.
If one could build a tubular K member with some manner of reinforcement that actually ties the frame rails together....while resisting the tendency for the...
It was not a high speed crash. The guy behind my son was looking left and thought my kid took off to the right so he hit the gas to pull up.. Ive been hit like that before a long time ago. But that was a company truck. The guy nor my son were injured.
Yea I am still dealing with the insurance company so I didn't want to take it apart yet to see the actual damage. I found a rear bumper reinforcement OE used on ebay for 58 bucks and free shipping. So I see that it is a bolt on part so thats good. From under the car you cant see that it bolts...
If you're attaching an engine that weighs 600 lbs and the most you can realistically save is 22 lbs (that's if you could halve the weight of the factory unit) with an unproven design of unknown strength and durability, then as said above - why bother?
But - you said you have extensive skills...
Thanks Dave and your welcome, yea that picture does appear to be taken at moparfest… but I just found it posted on FCBO yesterday so I figured I would post it. I know Daves GT well, and briefly spoke to him in person a couple of times. The story is really amazing how he got that car. Tell us...
While thinking of your endeavor, consider weight of a complete engine along with gearbox, lift forces, lateral forces, as well as the geometric design for steering and suspension, engine mount orientation for proper driveline alignment, along with tensile strength of metal utilized in the...
Sure, it's heavy and sometimes poorly welded, but they are strong. I'm sure you could take a lot of weight off by doing this, but how strong will it be. Application, drag cars is what I see. Others would be for special engine applications like Gen III Hemi's or other setups. I like torsion bar...
One issue I would see is ensuring the suspension/steering parts are correctly located for proper alignment. Another is the strength of the structure itself to withstand the weight and loads applied to it.
