Brett Evans wanted to build a car that does everything. It had to have dragstip guts and the ability to stick in the turns. After much thought, Brett decided on a second-generation GM F-body for the car. He located a clean 1970 Trans Am clone, which added another dimension to this project – it wasn’t your typical Chevy. Even cooler is that Brett is running a Pontiac engine to power this project. A dual purpose car with Arrowhead power – Splitter was born. Discuss this project on the V8TVForum!

Project Splitter is in the process of having the roll cage installed. This is where the car gets ugly! The cage is designed to be compliant to the rule books for both street legal drag racing and road racing sanctioning bodies, so it's a hybrid design meeting all the various requirements. Next up is the rear suspension, some paint work, and the interior before building the Butler 541 Pontiac engine!

The transformation of Project Splitter begins with a quick mini-tub job to gain clearance for the larger rear tires, followed by a major overhaul of the front suspension. Splitter now sits on Global West tubular upper and lower control arms, QA1 coil-over shocks and springs, Baer brakes, CCW Wheels, and Toyo Tires.
