Thought you guys might be interested in my GTO project. I started by building a chrome-molly tube chassis to scca gt3 rules. 2400mm wheelbase same as the SWB Ferrari. I used a c4 corvette donor for the suspension, dressed it up and powder coated everything. All floor panels and firewall are .040 titanium. Wheel tubs, dash and shifter cover are real carbon fiber. Engine is a race prepped 355 inch sbc with all the good parts. Transmission is a magnesium Tex racing dog box with rem finished straight cut gears. 3 disc clutch and mag bell housing are Tilton. Shocks are top of the line Afco double adjustable with the rears inboard mounted. The body is a Mcburnie, I stretched the front fenders 3.7 inches to match the original GTO. Wheels are 2000 corvette N73 magnesium option. The finished car will come in just under 2000 pounds and have about 480 hp, top end will be around 186. I am nearly finished now and working on the paint. I can hardly wait to drive it , it should be a lot of fun.
