    1937 Ford not HAMB friendly

    Apparently my current build was not hamb appropriate even though I didn't even get to the real good stuff.

    Anyone here have any interest?

    Wow that looks like a really cool build! Is it yours or a customer car?

    Is that a ford modular motor? GT trans?

    Have you done anything to address rear end lift due to the shape 0f the car besides the louvers? Diffuser maybe?

    Its my personal car so the build is dragging.

    It is a gt transaxle that I have made an adapter to go to an lsx. Lsx tall deck block lsx-dr heads, my own manifold/headers. 80MM turbos. C5 vette suspension.

    It will have an integrated diffuser, and will actually have two decklids. The one shown will be for street use, and a second that will mount direct to the chassis which will have a wing as well as be teh parachute mount. The aero on the rear of the car is one of my biggest concerns for speed, it will be a work in progress i'm sure.

    You had doubts...really?

    Having said that, I'm subscribing.
    I have quite a few projects that don't belong on the HAMB, that's why it's so cool that Ryan and John started this venue.

    side view of chassis, it is stripped to the bare minimum at the moment so I can finally start welding up things. It has just been tacked untill now so I could verify things




    My shifter, I started with a unit out of a porsche but didn't end up using much of it. But the cables worked out nicely! Nice to know I can get replacments cheap and easy.
