I'm going to do solid aluminum and weld in subframe connector's, possibly through the floor.

Next plan is to pull the front frame off. Sand it, smooth and paint. Toss the motor. Fix the floor as needed. Then put it back together with new control arms, coil overs ect. This way the frame/floors will be done. Of course I don't really want to start this till I have more parts ready.

Well, been a while but the project is going somewhere now.
Got the new floors welded in, so interior is pretty much all set for now.
Later this week we are pulling the 301/tranny setup, nose ect. Then we will clean up the front subframe.
Parts I have so far to go in.
rebuild ls6 shortblock
rebuilt 6 speed tranny
arh headers.
BP automotive engine harness
Still making up my mind on which heads to run.Probably some ported stockers. Just looking for 400-430rwhp;.

I have some pics. Everytime we start on this we get delayed with shop work.
Customers come first. My car gets built on spare time.
