Yes. Factory steering will work just fine.

Neat!

Can you put me in your update loop? PM me about seeing if I can do a quickie for the magazine.

Upper arm looks like the one on my Cobra, but it has more adjustability for camber and caster, since the Fox used to do it from the top. I like it MUCHO!

Awesome set up, I would be interested in this setup as well. If you could keep me in the loop as well I'd greatly appreciate it.

We have been shipping racks for the last few weeks and are nearly caught up with our back orders. We are hoping to have inventory ready for next day shipping by the end of the month.

It's called Chris Alston's Chassisworks. Lino, thanks to you guys for finally getting me my power rack. I expect to find the 8 month wait was worthwhile.

PS . No threadjack intended.

Gram: Yes, I am now at Chris Alston's Chassisworks. I got picked up right after the acquisition/deal was finalized. I'm pretty happy here. I'd like to start attending some events instead of being chained to my desk, but work is work and organization is what our focus is on currently. Its a good company to work for and I plan to be here for a while.

Steve: Glad to hear you finally received your rack. It should be everything you hoped for and more. ;-) Seriously, it is a very good product and if you run into any snags during installation or have any questions you know how to reach me.

The 67-70 kits are done. Our Bilstein shocks arrived early last week. Due to work, family, and it being the Holiday season, I have not had enough time to work on my car.

We need a 67, 68, 69, or 70 running vehicle here in Lake Havasu so we can get these parts bolted up and tested.

If anyone is near the area, and has a car please let me know via PM.

Until we can get the parts on a car and make sure everything is what we had hoped for, we won't start selling.

I hate to be the one but someone needs to ask the question.

Is this set up going to be used for performance (i.e. track) use only where welds are inspected on a regular basis or will they be made available for street use as well as on track?

Historic,

I am not real sure what the legal aspects are with answering that question. We deal with performance parts all the time, and most companies include a disclaimer stating the products are for "off highway use only"

What people do with it once they get it into their own hands becomes their own business.

I will tell you this, we fully intend to put the kits through very serious testing, have all the parts magnafluxed on a regular basis.

We want this set up to last the life of the car it's on.

Time frame...that's a great question. I've stopped trying to guess. It's basically me and another guy doing these right now, and the other guy is in the middle of building his first house. his wife is about 4-5 months pregnate, and the new Trophy Truck in the shop is supposed to be done in like 6 months.

Honestly, I have no clue. Right now I want to find out how the 67-70 set ups run, because the 65-66 kits will be the same basic design.

I need to get my car finished...*sigh*
