Camaro SRG-Force Chassis going together under customers
1968 Camaro. You can see our SRG Watts link under the
rear. All CNC cut and fully TIG welded.
You can see that all suspension components clear the factory
floor on the rear. Visual are the factory tank bracket
hangers. We have the option to use the factory tank with
our optional rear frame section.
Here you can see the factory tunnel with T-56 transmission
in place.
This is one of our rear suspension options "Monster Bars".
1.75" O.D. Bars. You can also see the clearance on the
rear seat pan.
Rear footwell mods may be required on some cars. This is
the area that will need to be modified. It will not be required
to cut this much on most coupes (this is a convertible). There
are some instances where there will be no cutting in this area
at all.
This is a shot of the same convertible fronm the underside. You
can see the extra convertible brace to the front of the picture
which requires more to be cut.
Here the body is set in place, you can see how the new frame
goes inside the factory unibody and one of the new rear body
mounts. Also notice the rear kickup gusset keeps the same
angle as the unibody frame.
This one is getting set up for LS-7 and Tremec t-56
The front is sitting down on the new frame. Here we have options.
In order to not sacrifice geometry we do ask the you trim the back
edge of the inner fender just a little bit to clear the upper control arm.
However we can do a setup with a swept back upper control arm
to fit in the factory inner fender cutout. Your Choice!
Sitting down nice! We test fit all chassis.
This shot is just before the body is all the way down on the frame.
This is one of our rear body mount options that is available. We
go through the trunk floor and supply a reinforcing plate for the
top side. Combine this with the front mount that goes into the
unibody frame in front of the wheel well and you have a sure fit.
Other options include attaching to the factory rear spring hanger.
This is the rear body mount that would be the one normally at the
back of the front factory subframe. This one hasn't been welded
in yet. You can utilize a factory body mount kit with this chassis.
You can see the clearance from the top of the rear kickup to the
floor as well as the upper coilover mounts.
LS mockup engine in place.
Here you can see the front sway bar crossmember as well as the
core support fitment.
This one is waiting for a brake package to be installed and then
its ready to go. Wilwood 12" or 13" available as well as any
Baer Brake kit. We also sell them in the form as well so you can
purchase your brake kit at a later time.
Here you can see our "Monster Bar" rear suspension with QA1
coilovers, 9" Ford, SRG Watts Link. This setup is designed to
go under the factory floor without cutting. Is this the best option?
There always must be a sacrifice....you get the best geometry and
you have to modify the floor alot, you don't modify the floor and
you have to sacrifice a little on geometry. It really all depends on
what your really going to do with the car... Go hardcore road racing
or drive it normal everyday, etc. No matter which way you decide
with this full frame chassis upgrade your First Generation Camaro
or Firebird is going to drive and handle ten times better than any-
thing you can do to the original setup. You see we get it both ways
the hardcore chassis guys hit us for sacrificing geometry to keep
from cutting the floor and then the other side hits us for having to
cut the floor so we just do it both ways. However there are slight
mods that must be made to the rear foot well area and inner fenders
even with the standard direct fit option.
This is one of our many designs available for "bolt in" transmission
mount. You can also see the available adjustability for different
transmissions. You know hot rod guys are never satisfied. Our
standard setup will accept, T-56, Turbo 350, Turbo 400, 700
4L60E, 4L65E, 4L85E, PowerGlide, Richmond and other 4,5
and 6 speeds.
On the setup table getting fit for a LS/6 speed combo.
One of many front suspension options available. Many spindle
options are available including the Wilwood Pro-Spindle with
bolt on steering arm which is standard on our SRG-Force with
the Alabama Slammer option. This allows us to drop the car and
change the steering arm to our lowered version with sacrificing
on the bumpsteer issue.
Rear kickup gussets not only look cool but they work. Welds
are not to bad either.
Did I mention it had front ones as well. You can also see the front
(cowl) body mount along.
