Doesn't the Vette pump require a remote reservoir?

Yes, the Corvette PS pump requires a remote reservoir

Yes!
I have gotten it running but not fine tuned yet. I went ahead and notched the rear frame to fit the 275s but they STILL SCRUB! BFH coming soon. I will post up some media of my most recent work...

I have no experience with tire fitment on a wagon, but we were able to get a 275 in the wheel well of Cutlass with nothing other than spacing. Barely, but it fit!!

Ive notched the frame in the rear. Replaced the steering box and other worn out steering parts. Got to bleed the brakes and take it down the road to start tuning on it. I do have to wore up the headlights and turn signals which no longer work Notre that I changed the column out.
