Still putting the engine together, but completing work on the chassis, suspension and brakes. Pics to come, but have Edelbrock heads, aluminum low profile intake, Wilwood brakes, suspension rebuild with state of the art materials (polygraphite etc.), rear swaybar, rebuilt steering gear, new larger capacity fuel tank, etc.

Pictures please, pictures

Brakes and chassis are very important. The switch pitch control could be upgraded.

How did you arrange for a larger fuel tank? Here I have used the tank from
a 5.7L diesel into a gas car, to get several extra gallons. Also calibrated the
gauge to be accurate to a gallon, to use that capacity. Bruce Roe

The tank I found is from a 1970- Olds 98, 26 1/2 gallon, and I had the trans rebuilt and also have the switch pitch module. The wheels are by Boyd Coddington.

TCE here in Phoenix can put Wilwood brakes on about anything. These are the adapters made to fit the Toro drum hubs.

Here is the completed Wilwood brake assembly, 14" rotors and 6 piston calipers, rebuilt steering box with a quicker ratio, all new urethane bushings, upgraded ball joints ,tie rods , sway bar end links, shocks. We also installed a rear sway bar and are working on rear suspension brake upgrades.

Great upgrades for a 67. Is there an adjustable proportioning valve for front to rear Brakes?

how you install a rear sway bar? Is that even possible with the toros rear axle with no coilovers?
