Cool ! Gasser, Altered wheelbase, Y-Block way cool !!
What type / make are the slicks / wheels ?

Larry Short

Larry, sorry forgot to add in that info. Wheels are from American Rebel MFG out of California. They are made in the USA and very nice. Pie crust cheater slicks are from Towel City Racing on the east coast, also made in the USA.

Wheels are 15x8 but come in many sizes. Tires are 10x29.5

Towel City tires are what I have on my Gasser too ! You can't beat their price.

Update from JG Design & Fabrication​ on the Monster build. 

"After laying our spring fixed position, cycling the suspension, and determining our shackle mounts while giving us 45* degree shackle mount. We used a hole saw to drill the frame at 1.5" hole, then cleaned the holes up to make sure they were straight and level side to side. To verify our side to side trueness we run our bushing sleeves in the frame with a 1.25 OD tube through the frame / sleeves. Once leveled and squared, we tacked each side inside and out, then welded it out. We then ground our welds out, installed bushings after greasing with wheel bearing grease. Then a simple shackle install and there we have it."

MAJOR UPDATE:From Justin at JG Fabrication & Design on the Monster build.
So here's a finished install of our shackles. Then a reference picture of rounding our tube overlays on the motor plate. We used heat, then the persuader aka a hammer, rolling them over the tube, tack l, weld, repeat. Once cooled we installed bushings in the motor mount then bolted up our tabs. Our tabs helped center the motor in the chassis, then just had to position it front to rear and centered our rear tail shaft verifying the motor square and level in the chassis.

Look'n Good Lance, Can't wait to see it finished. Do you already have a motor built for it or is that next ?

Larry Short

Larry, if you go to the beginning of this thread you can read all about the motor. Tim McMaster is building it. The rods did change to Mummert rods from what was posted back then. 12:1 motor will be fun. The engine is only as far as whats listed. I'll be posting up the final assembly images pretty soon. He's going to get back on it. Its been on pause for a while while I sorted out a bunch of things. Nothing to do with Tim. Tim's also building an engine for my '62 Slick I just picked up. See the thread in the regular car/truck section for that info.
