Chris,

It's gotta be alot of fun working on these C-3's with the body off and nothing keeping you from doing things right. Then again... I guess it gets more costly as you don't want to put the body back on until everything is just the way you want it. If you have gone this far why not take a little extra time and money and never question what you did.

Kudos on the work! :cheers:

You guys are doing a great job. My frame is cracked in the same place. I bought a tower brace from Van Steel to hopefully keep this from happening again after I get it welded. I have the engine and suspension off right now. Anyway, are those the Dynomax headers? That engine looks really nice. The upgrades should add some punch. Full speed ahead!! :chevy :thumbs:
