Re: 1956 Chevy Pro-Street Build

Started messing around with engine fitment of the headers and stuff this weekend. Had an old set of BBC headers to chop up so I cut them up and looked at making them go under the frame rail instead of over. It will work but they will have to be totally custom to bring them out the front fenders.

Also with the heads on and valve covers I found I need to cut back the firewall a bit, OR move the engine forward??? need radiator first! I was thinking about just making a box to cut into the existing firewall as a one piece setup. Then taking the trans cover and making it fit to the new 'box'? what do you guys think?

With this enormous engine bay you'd think that GM would have planned this better??? oh well its just more things to do to make it "Custom"....
