Hi
Looks pretty good! I have the same pictures of my Pacer. I can remember, its a lot of work!
What size are your tires? I have 15 x 15 Wheels with 17,5x32x15 Tires. That is realy huge. Do you stretch the Wheelbase? I have go back with the Wheels arround 3" at my car. So i have more space at the front of the wheelhaus especial on the right side. And a little more Wheelbase on a Pacer is not a bad idea in my opinion. Greetings Dom

Hi
Yes for sure! Drive AMC only with AMC Power.
Its a 401 .30 over Transmission is a TH400 out of an Wagoneer with 2WD Tail housing. Header are the 1 7/8 from Dougs but i have to change a lot because of the crossmember of the Pacer. Also i have a lot problems to fit the steering thru the headers. In my opinion it is better to cut the frontend away and build a new Frontclip. It is much lighter and you have more space. The front section is not realy useful for a racecar. Greeting Dom

Hi
The Brake is still with Booster. It does not help realy because of the big cam. You have to push the pedal hard, but the car stopps well. I have Disc brakes front and rear.
The Rack is the stock part but it is plugged. So it is manual.
Greeting Dom
