Install video: a few months back we installed one of these chassis under pro-touring competitor Tom Farrington’s 1966 Chevelle. We took our time and documented the process. While not a step-by-step video, it takes you through the high points of upgrading to a MOMENTUM series chassis and gives the viewer a better understanding of the scope of work.
