  2. LowSquire, I’ve been following you build for awhile now and am wondering if you intend to go for full Vic rego? Or club? How do you think you will go with the square tube chassis and split bones?

    is it the stock type small block gen? if so you can use the stock brackets, send me a pic of it and I'll try to send you a pic of mine, also I can find extra brackets here if you want to use them. they sit high on the pass side covering the #1 spark plug and the front of the valve cover.

    Here is a pic of my 289. I left the generator on it in the stock location.....

    Don't fix what ain't broken...eh?

    Sorry, its not a great pic, but it gives you an idea of where the generator was originally. Its got one heck of a hefty bracket that goes with it.

    As ive said before-
    "these are not the droids you are looking for"
    "move along"
    of course its an original A chassis.
