    Tjis is my 67 Special GS340 clone. i have a new black inerior for it(with buckets and console). I am having tubular adjustable control arms and 4 wheel slotted cross drilled disk brakes installed. this fall, I'm having a 400+hp 401 and 4L60E trans with a 2000 rpm stall converter. should be pretty tuffy then! Right now it's pretty much stock except for the wheels and the vintage air.

    Stagedcat; I bought a bellhousing at nailhead Buick. they told me that putting a 700R4 behind a would require cutting the floorpan, and that this was the way to go. I'm told that when it's together it looks like it was supposed to be there. I also bought an ATFOUR transmission controller and TPS. In addition to that I also bought this neat kit that not only converts the floor shift from 2 speed to 4, but also converts it from rod shifted to cabled! It's gonna be bad a$$!
