building my Bugeye and doesn't seem that alot of people here are really into street performance upgrades. I cann't find a whole alot on web either. Please provide links if you know some. Brakes and suspension especially since I am building a V-8 Bugeye also
The follow is an outline of what I am thinking doing to my bugeye
1275 engine
3.73 rear gears
Rivergate 5 speed conversion
Eaton 45 supercharger
researching pistons,head and cams, need help !!!!
Header
Upgrade to front disc brakes
S/bar 3/4 rear ,5/8 front
maybe tube shock conversion and rear spring lowered
I need advice, if anyone knows of a good street set up, and or has tried any of above with good or bad results
My objective is a finish project I can hit the Interstate with and drive alot. that is why I want gears chosen, hoping the supercharger with take up the slack. Will not be used for any type of competion.
