1968 Chevelle With '87 GN engine

[TURBOPOWERED68]

1-i took the easy way out and gave caspers some money for this Casper's Electronics, Inc.: 84/87 Dash Harness Mate
2-i used the GN mounts top and bottom. For the bottom ones I just had to drill the holes on the frame.
3-you will need to have some power steering lines made up with the correct fittings for the steering box.
4-on my car I had already a 2004r so no problem with that. But if your car has a PG the 2004r would fit with ZERO Mods. The only change is the addition of the D-tent Cable.
5-the fuel system is completely custom made. But again I gave caspers some more money for a plug in dash to fuel tank Harness. Then I added the Hot Wire kit.
In the engine compartment every thing fits pretty close to an OE GN
Take a look at my pictures if you have anymore questions just ask I am here to help

I used a set of G-Body tank straps
And a OE GN gas tank
On the tank you have cut the filler neck and pipe it with a piece of hose in order to get it by the Plate.

Very cool, it's going to be really hard to sell once it's done and you go drive it around and get offers on it because it's a killer combo.

From seeing where it started to those last few of the paint and stripes you can get WAY more than $7500 for that car.

Pretty up the engine and that badd boys ready for the local car shows.
Too bad it's winter!!:frown:

thanks
but the $7500 was before the body came off the Frame. i will be looking for mid to low teens it just depends on a few things it might be getting.

Hydroboost Conversion

Did you consider using a Hydroboost instead of that 11" vacuum booster? It would really clean up the firewall, and stop like a champ. We use hydroboosts on the 572 Chevelles. They Stop! we have all the mounting set up for those cars.
