305ci (215 Buick +) AWD Vega Project

Postby Monza Harry » Sun Feb 23, 2014 10:07 pm

Here is an interesting piece I found while doing some "EFI Homework" read the small caption on the bottom and then follow the links. Harry http://www.rancefi.com/ P.S. check out the GMC Motorhome link apparently he is a long time H-Body guy :th: :D

They just need to turn the body around 180 degrees now! lol Velocity joint angle looks pretty severe.

It isn't front wheel drive like the motorhome it is 4 wheel drive, as if the front wasn't tight enough to start with, he "needed" more of a challenge I guess, this guy is a sucker for punishment even by my standards. Harry

Maybe he should have started with an Audi and welded the Vega body on. :lol: Cool project, more headaches than I would want for sure.
