MORRISON UNVEILS GT-SPORT CHASSIS FOR ’64-67 GM A-BODY
Owners of First Generation Chevelles, Pontiac GTOs, Olds 442s and Grand Sport Buicks can now avail themselves to the technology that has made Art Morrison Enterprises GT-Sport chassis the epitome of “resto-mod” builds. Important improvements over the initial GM “A-body” chassis include improved ride and handling, optimized acceleration and a sleek stance.
Morrison’s engineers have designed the chassis with inner-angled frame rails to fit as far under the body envelope as possible, reducing the amount of frame visible from under the car and provide optimum ground clearance. The lower vehicle CG will also contribute to improved handling.
A special suspension package has been developed for the chassis, optimizing camber angle, roll center, caster angle, etc. that delivers exceptional corner carving ability—with “0” bump steer—and provides a comfortable ride. This has been accomplished by using a computer-designed, C6 spindle-based IFS with tubular steel control arms and a triangulated 4-bar rear suspension. Adjustable coil-over springs are employed at all four corners and custom anti-sway bars installed front and rear.
Mounts for small- and big-block and LS-series engines are offered, and most any popular automatic or stick-shift transmission can be employed. A 9-inch rearend handles the power.
Features:
- Improve your ride and handling
- Optimize your early A-body’s acceleration
- Lower your vehicle for a sleek stance
- Chassis features special suspension package
- Mounts for small-block, big-block and LS-series engines available
