Ok, that's Don Carlton's Hemi Colt. But just change the Hemi with a Slant and that is what I am shooting for. But the car be built to take any Mopar engine. |

i dont know how the slant fits with the lake bell but i know on our hemis using correct race hemi mounts we slice the lip in the tunnel and fold it over... no other clearance issues other than that... |

Yes, but the homework is done. These are ready to produce. Two of them are ready to inspect when I head over next week. Produced for a Lakewood - prolly easy to adapt to a QuickTime. Bottem line is I won't ever have to think about my feet. This will need some work because the Lakewood bell moves the starter to the low position. Anyway good luck with your adapter. Should be posting pics of my progress next week. wvenable found the shop and did most of the leg work on this project,,posting this as I had the camera...the machine shop is manned by a couple of tool and die guys,, they have a couple of Bridgeports, several lathes, grinders, turret mills. The guys really like doing one off's, short runs. Strong candidate for special parts.... reviewed the adapters at the machine shop Saturday,, real nice parts, they were made the right way. the original adapter was digitized via a CMM and that data was outputted as a 2D drawing. The drawing dimensions were then inputted into CNC machinery to produce the parts. here are photos http://www.flickr.com/photos/13718356@N ... 238734701/ the drawing and program are made to produce the adapter to match up with a Lakewood blow proof bell. The machine shop is tweeking in the changes to be able to produce an adapter that will fit the QT bell. Next step will be listing out - sourcing the hardware that ties it all together |

No shop name. The guy works for a local company but is a bit of a freelancer. He has a shop behind his house filled with all kind of machinery. Matter of fact he just ordered a forge - can't wait to see that. I will be out there in a few days and I can run some things/ideas by him. |
