What Did You Do To Your Chevelle Today

[fleming23]

Well, I woke up with the intention of going to Peach State Chevelle's Chevy show today but rain cancelled my plans so I decided to spend some time in the garage! Was a nice cool morning to work on the car!

Today's project


Removed my factory SB w/AC springs and QA1 D/A shocks to replace with Viking Double Adjustable coilovers. The one and only reason I did this swap was because with the standard coil springs it was nearly impossible to reach the shock knobs as they are down in the lower control arm bucket and reaching through the coils requires fingers of a 5 year old.... The coilovers will likely further hurt my cars 1/4 mile abilities but at this point I think I am just going to enjoy a fun street car. I'll still make some track trips but with lower expectations about hitting the 10 second ET this car was so close to getting.



For my own amusement I set the coilovers as low as possible to see how it looked.




It was definitely "in the weeds!" I don't think I could have backed out of the garage without dragging the header so I brought it back up a bit.
