Schwartz performance chassis was out much earlier. Check their KZfaq videos or website 😊

Not for Camaros

Since you’ve had experience with both companies Morrison, and RS, how does the Morrison one compare to this one? I know it’s only the front clip but still, does it have the camber and caster adjustability like this one? Which one handles a little better, etc. lol

Awesome brother! Love the setup But to drop the LT4???? JK That’s my dream engine to put in my 67 but you’re probably right,it’s more than what’s practical This setup would be more geared towards a track car than a daily,correct?

With VVT it's like Mom's grocery getter driving around under 2,000 rpm. It only goes crazy once you step on it.

I have a 396 in mine,rebuilt not too long ago. When it gives up the ghost I’m going LS Torn between the LT4 and an N/A LS3 600 hp LT4 takes a little more fab for the power steering,correct? Let me know how happy you are when you get it on the road

Not the first full chassis, Schwartz has been doing that for years

Did the paint shop epoxy prime that or did you pay for the powder coat option?

Just painted it locally, not powder coated. I think the Roadster Shop gets 3K.

You mentioned that you’ve also installed the ride tech system on another car. I have a 68 Camaro that I’ve been planning suspension upgrades on for about 20 years now…I’ve just about settled on the ride tech option, but can’t stop looking at this spec chassis. In your opinion, is the extra cost of the roadster shop chassis worth it over the improvements that you see going from stock to ride tech? I’d appreciate the insight.

I did the Morrison Clip and Ride Tech 4 bar about 7 years ago when they were reasonable in cost. Right now the Morrison front clip is over 10K and the last quote I got for a complete chassis was 27K. For the money, the Roadster Shop is the only way to roll because it's still priced at around 12K to start and you can get a pretty nice one for under 16K, depending on what you want. Last time I checked the wait time was pushing 7 or 8 months.

I also think the overall results of the suspension setup is far superior to adding a front and rear clip. I had vertical movement in excess of 2" when I jacked up the front of the car. I asked Morrison to build me a complete frame and their response was, "You don't need one," so even though they're in my own backyard I went with the Roadster Shop. I'm now on my second chassis with them and I'm not looking back

@@GenV_Restomods Thanks for the quick response! I appreciate it. Yeah, the Morrison clip is nice but they have gotten very expensive for what it is. I’ve been looking at the full front and back ride tech setup with the tru-turn option to address the steering geo. I know it’ll never be as good as a full chassis, but at ~6k all-in it seems pretty hard for me to justify another 20k. Then again, it’s a forever car for me so the spec chassis seems like a good long term win. Anyway, thanks for your insight. I’ve watched the other videos of yours, you do great work, sir.
