    Welcome, should be a screamer with those hp and tq numbers, looks like you did a little bumper tuck on the 74 . Are you planning on going with an aftermarket steering set up

    Not sure yet, the front end has less than 200 miles on it, it is a complete stock kit from Luarel Mountain. I am thinking of leaving it with the manual gear box for now. It also has manual breaks with front discs and rear drums.

    I used to own a '69 GS350, a '70 GS350 with a 4 speed and a '70 GS455. They were always my favorite GM intermediate cars.
