I run VW calipers and discs on the link pin front end, drilled out for the Chevy five bolt pattern. I purchased rotors that did not have any bolt holes since it is difficult to drill the four bolt out to match the Chevy pattern. Since my transaxle is Corvair, I have Ford Explorer solid rotors, modif...

I have an access plate on the right side of the tunnel opposite the clutch hole. It is a 4"x6 inch opening that is reinforced with 1"x 1/4" steel. It makes it a lot easier to access the clutch and brake pedal linkage. I installed Morse push/pull throttle and clutch cables in the tunne...
