With fiber in general...I did expect to have to add some homemade steel stiffening structure/ tube extensions etc...good to know.I appreciate the heads up!
WNC...these are Glass....not steel.
WISH...yeah..I am at a point where I'll probably spend 2x the cost to get mine straight. They have 2 deep creases running from the highest out side point diagonally toward the hood...and ofcourse dead center of each fender. I'm sure I do not have the skiils...
Let me preface this with.."Yes, I know their reputation has been less than stellar, but I can't find anything recent on them."
So it appears the "kinder, more gentile" U.S. Body is advertising again... 68-69 Coronet fenders caught my eye.
Has anyone taken a shot at em? Or will I be the first to...
All I can offer, is the same as I messaged you.
There are plenty of other memes in this very thread which are just as "risqué", and are on the same PG..not G rating...yet they soldier on.
That is what I find interesting.

There are several internet references that say limit first few trips to 15 miles then let the oil cool...followed with "do this several times".
Small block /904
28" tire (275/60/15 on 8" rim)
Literally just finished putting it together this morning...no highway till after the short trips are done.
Going to let it cool till tonight...(it's 102 right now)...do another 15 miles and park it. Tomorrow do one AM, one PM...that should be it on the short trips?
So 4 times heat/cool...then 500 miles of gentle driving before burnouts n donuts?
This was an new old set of gears...iirc they were USG...honestly I don't remember.. I bought a "rebuilt hog head" that wasn't set up....at all.... last year for like 500 bucks.Added DrDiffs CSE and a new set of Timkens all around.
