Approximately 22.5" Dale. This is for the Camaro with a experimental engine installed...not enough hp in the Stocker engine to warrant it lol.

Not running Stock this year? WHat engine you puttin' in it?

Stocker motor will go back in later in the season. There is a 600+ hp small block in it now...taking it to the Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green this summer. I'll be spending time getting the Mustang sorted out.

Rich, sorry to hear you're not going out with the stocker motor. It would have been nice to see the improvement after the freshen up. -Al

Cut me just a little slack guys...I have a partner in this car and he has been itching to try this. Figure I owe him a little experimental time. No worry, we will get back to Stocker trim before the end of the season.

The Calvert bar was a pita to initially set up for welding. The bars, floor jacks, lumber and the car being on the floor made it interesting to say the least. I must have made 150 measurements before the first tack weld was made...after that we were able to put the car in the air to fully weld the brackets. All that is needed now is a little TnT time to see if this 383 really has 600 hp or more.

Rich, have been following your build, car is very nice. We are slanted towards the 1st gen Camaro and yours is one of the cleanest examples, good luck on the T/T with the 383. Tony Tosto #3050 B/S
