SKO, I remember in the features section Eyeball mentioned that you flipped the uprights on yur frontend ,right? I assume you switch em side to side and must have to do somethin to the drag links right? Care to enlighten me,? also how did the Pontiac mill clear yur steering ... Been eyeballing my new 51 and just starting to explore some possibilities...although I'm leaning towards a 283...hard to ignore my chevy tendencies...Appreciate any info...thanx Weed
