After seeing all the dollars my friend was spending in the never ending cycle of land speed racing, I decided to take a step back for a while and build a vehicle that if I wanted to some day could be finished for racing if I get that itch again, or just satisfy my need for speed now. I built this my way and pretty much went at it and crossed each hurdle as they came. No real plan going in other than an end goal of 800-1000hp and a rat rod with a 4G6x motor in it. I pretty much don't care what anyone thinks and hate everyone equally, so no ones opinions will even matter. It came out the way it did, I like it, my friends and family do and that is that. It should bring miles of smiles for a long time to come.

And now here is my hacked up creation.

did you make your own adapter or did you buy a kit. i have been looking for an inexpensive way to go rear wheel drive with 4g63t in a firebird.

This particular kit started as a Ken's Kustom Chassis adapter. We had to machine and modify the adapter plate for the motor. It had to be trimmed to size(they send it rather large) and we had to modify some bolt holes. But it was no big deal really. The crank to flexplate adapter fix perfectly however. I almost went with another manufacturers kit, but his wait time was ridiculous.

His name is Bill Hincher. His is more affordable as he is a small shop and his plates are cast and he mills them himself. The one I have is a forged piece and is CNC's in a much larger operation. I feel after having this piece, I chose correctly as this thing is a hoss and should outlast anything I put it through or anyone for the matter.

I know this is an older thread, but do you have any more pics? The video link isn't working anymore.. From what I saw from your build post, its quit a bad ass piece of machinery! I like when people are willing to try something new once in a while!
