    You're right Don, the guys have provided some very good info about hemis on here. I especially like the part about any good machine shop being able to do them.

    As for the way you want to build your car, you are missing the points that Dan and I were trying to make. It is your car and has to reflect what you want and your personality (and it is your money ) All we were trying to say is that with your very limiited time off from work (Monday evenings) it would be so much easier on you to build this one on a prefabbed 32 frame instead of having to build an entirely new one from scratch.

    Also, the 30 body Dan has offered to sell you is so mint that they don't come along like this very often. To do a severe channel it would have to be cut up so much (especially for rear axle clearance) that it might be better to do a less clean body instead.

    But we have nothing against a channeled one, and in fact think they look really cool. Here are a couple of my favorites:
