Title: 1967 Firebird Winter Upgrades
Post by: Kevin Dunn on Jan 25, 2026, 07:33 PM
I always say I am finished with the car, and it is for the most part, but the reality is every I always find something that needs upgrading, fixed or just needs changing for the sake of change.
This Winters project is to fabricate a new set of headers.
Ground clearance has always been a challenge with the side pipes and 2.25" primarys So the plan is to modify the subframe and reduce the primaries to 2" in order to gain some ground clearance.

I compete with the car in a variety of events like the Optima series, hill climbs and land speed events.

I am just getting started on this, stay tuned for more updates.

Such a wicked looking hot rod. Glad you're going to events & actually running it hard.
