As an expansion of its highly acclaimed GT-Sport line, the engineering team at Art Morrison Enterprises has developed a chassis for 1964-72 Chevelle applications. Key benefits include improved ride and handling, optimized acceleration and a sleek stance. Production of the bolt-in replacement for OEM Chevy frames is slated to begin in the Spring of 2010.
Given the differences in 1964-65, 1966-67 and 1968-72 Chevelle body styles, Morrison’s engineers have designed the chassis to fit as far under the body envelope as possible for each series, reducing the amount of frame visible from under the car to provide optimum ground clearance. A 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. AME’s goal was to deliver exceptional corner carving ability—with “0” bump steer—and provide a comfortable ride. This has been accomplished through the a computer-designed IFS with tubular steel control arms with adjustable coil-over springs and a triangulated 4-bar rear suspension. Custom anti-sway bars are employed front and rear.
Mounts for small block, big block and LS-series engines are offered, and most any popular automatic or stick-shift transmission can be employed. A 9" rear handles the power.
