I saw something similar at Jeff Creeches shop ( Carolina Auto Masters) back several months ago. Someone had pieceed together a '54 body on a C5 chassis with a SC LS1 engine -- about 460 RWHP. Quite a car. Not sure it was well sorted out, but boy it was prettty.

More power to you. Its a great idea and it looks like you are doing it correctly:: stick with it. please, and keep us informed.
