Wonderful!!!!!!!!! A man after my own heart. My project is an 81 CDV with a '70 500 in it. Would really like to pick your brain about the rearend and brakes issue. I've just finished with the motor and exhaust, now the rest of the drive train needs help. I'm using the stock turbo 400 for now. Very nice car!!!
