This 1970 Chevelle was built by Schwartz Performance<\/a> in Woodstock, Illinois. The car rides on their G-Machine chassis with Ridetech triple-adjustable coilovers, power steering rack, and billet sway bars front and rear. The engine bay holds a supercharged 454 ci LSX V8 built by Nelson Racing Engines producing 950 horsepower. The motor features a Whipple supercharger, Holley Dominator ECU, and Schwartz Performance custom 2-inch stainless steel long-tube headers. A Finish Line built 4L80E four-speed automatic transmission sends power through a custom steel driveshaft to a Moser 9-inch rear end with 35-spline axles. A set of Boyd Coddington wheels cover Baer 14-inch brakes with six-piston calipers front and back. You can view more photos of the project in the build albums<\/a>.<\/p>\n
