Sorry was off to church and lunch with the fam. No great pics yet. I am going down to blast the frame and start prepping it for paint. I may start on building the rotisserie as well.

This is similar to what I want to end up with. Sort of a pro touring look with enough HP to be stupid when I want to.

I would keep away from air.
Look into QA1, Hotchkis, Ride Tech. Don’t know your budget but those companies make really good suspension |

I would tub that Impala to get some more meat on the rear wheels. Those cars, to me, look incredible with some deep dish rims. I assume your Impala is a coupe?

2 door hard top original SS it originally was a 283 powerglide. Currently its a 327 TH350. I am still shopping for a motor but I may go through the 327 balance it and fuel injection. I put the 327 in in high school and may keep it for nostalgia

For street cruising the 327 done right would make a great power plant. Maybe some mini-tubs with that setup.

I thought you guys would get a laugh out of this:
I have an overseas customer who purchased a '67 stang with a freshly built 347S from some guy. But it's never ran right. His mechanic thought maybe there was something wrong with the engine. My customer sent us a DM asking if we've ever seen anything like this before: Who ever built the engine left a bunch of shop rags in the lifter valley Dafuq. Poor dude, man. That's why you dont smoke weed at work.

Can anyone help decode engine codes. It is a 3970010 with a pad stamp of v1022tkL. T8Z506123
I pulled down what Iwas told was a 327 and when I pulled the pan it is a 4 bolt main which got me looking but I am not able to figure out pad stamp decoding. I think it is a 78 to 80 350 or 400 165 hp 4 bolt |

Just wanted to chime in and talk about my dumb**** moment so that it saves you the same problem down the road.
When changing brake calipers always make sure the bleeders on on top. I managed to install them on the opposite sides of what they should and the brakes were mushy and inconsistent. Switched them the right way and fixed it up. I am the Bob Sutton of brake mechanics. Carry on. |

You better go back and inspect the brake lines looking like Susie Q fries.
