i got alot of stuff done this weekend on the zuk. i started up the 4.3 for the first time im 10 months and it ran like a champ. the new griffen alumnium radiator keeps it really cool. i moved my engine up some to get a better angle on the rear d-shaft. now my radiator sirts in front of the grille. i have an extra set of zuk fenders and a extra hood. how hard would it be to cut my front clip and move it forward then use a section out of the spare fenders to fill in the void?

That sounds a lot ike what 350 samurai did.

I added 9" to my hood by just building a frame and covering it with some sheetmetal and extending the hinges. As far as the fenders, I cut mine until they merged into the hood area, so I just used flat steel to extend them to the front end. Yours will be different if you are going to leave the full arch in it, so you are kind of on your own there.

As long as you move the font wheels forward to match.

Does anyone have a picture of one of the Lightning V8 conversions with the long nose? They look strange.
