PARTS CATALOG
The ed Quay Frame Rail Kit is totally jig welded for absolute accuracy and ease of installa-
tion. This kit is perfect for Super/Stock, Super/Gas, Super/Street, Bracket Racing and the
Pro/Street Scene. All of the parts we manufacture can be installed by the do-it-yourself en-
thusiast and are designed to save time and money. In the following pages you’ll see that the
components we make for the ‘82/92 Camaro/Firebird will help you build a first rate car. We
manufacture or sell everything needed to build a car from the ground up.
The purpose of any “kit” car is to allow the do-it-yourself person to build a car without the
problems that go along with designing one from scratch. The most crucial area in building a
car is making sure that the frame is straight, level and square. This part is already done be-
fore our kit reaches your doorstep. Our kit allows little or no room for error. Follow the in-
structions it will come out perfect. Our instruction booklet includes numerous photographs
to make the installation of the frame rails as easy as possible. The only way it would be eas-
ier would be for us to do it for you. If you can use sheet metal tools, are able to read a ruler
and know a good welder, you can install this kit with ease.
Ed Quay employs his vast experience to make sure the parts fit correctly and that the in-
structions are complete. All the guesswork is gone. We’ll keep you on track to successfully
completing your car. We are professionals that understand what it is like to build a car at
home. We are so certain of this that we take back any product that isn’t to your complete
satisfaction, provided it is returned to us in “as manufactured condition” within 30 days of
invoice date, freight prepaid.
Thank you for inquiring about our products. We wish you the best of luck in the coming sea-
sons and we hope to hear from you soon.

Fully welded bare frame kit 4 link suspension installed
Now you can buy the same quality frame rail kit that goes into a World Champion SS/GT car built at our factory in a
“Do It Yourself” package at a fraction of the cost. This performance proven kit is made from light weight 3” x 2”
x .083” wall tubing, mandrel bent and fixture welded for absolute accuracy. The kit can be setup for either a four link
or a ladder bar suspension and comes complete with the frame rails, back cross member, top shock mounts within
the cross member for coil-over shocks, “A” frame housing locator mounts and a driveshaft hoop.
The kit can be purchased as an un-welded kit with all the pieces shown above or as a ready to install fully welded kit
(pictured above). Both kits include an 18 page instruction booklet (with lots of pictures) showing you where to cut the
body and how to install the frame kit. Due to different transmission lengths, the driveshaft hoop is tack welded in the
frame so that it can be positioned and fully welded by the installer.
NOTE: Welded frame kits must be shipped by truck. There is a skid and packing charge for truck shipments and the
shipping charges are freight collect (meaning the customer pays the truck freight COD).
REAR HOUSING
We suggest using a 9” Ford housing for strength and availability of ratios. You can choose either the Strange
Engineering stock type housing which is legal for Super Stock applications or Chris Alston’s “Fab 9” housing (not
legal for Super Stock). No matter which you choose they come with a full back brace, an under the housing tube
supporting the 4 link plates, adjustable shock mounts and your choice of housing ends.
All ed Quay housings are fixture welded to assure exact bracket placement in relation to the housing centerline and
proper alignment of the ends to the 3rd member. 12 bolt or Dana 60 housing built to ed Quay’s exacting standards
are also available.

When every 1/1000th of a second counts, this is the
only choice. These units have been dyno checked
and perfectly matched so both sides of the car work
together to give a straight, quick, fast run. Although
these shocks are more expensive, they will provide
the ultimate performance for you.
Precision wound from chrome silicone steel to exacting
specifications. These springs are made with the same
technology used to manufacture competition valve
springs. Springs are one of the most overlooked
components for getting maximum performance from
your car’s suspension. Our choice is always Lamb.

Made especially for the “F” body Camaro/Firebird. They mount the engine low for
maximum hood clearance and for good ground clearance. By using these mounts in
conjunction with our headers, the engine is positioned exactly the same as our cars.
Please specify Big Block or Small Block with order.
Note: By design, the engine placement is not centered in the car.

“K” MEMBER
PN 100-4015
Ed Quay Race Cars introduces the next step in kit cars. A completely reworked “K” member for the
‘82 - ’92 Camaro/Firebird. The K-member is cut and welded in a fixture for repeatable accuracy. This
modification allows the acceptance of full kickout oil pans (big or small block), gives maximum possible
clearance for headers and relocates the lower “A” arm mounts for more caster to insure straight tracking.
The “K” member is sold on an exchange basis (customer to provide a clean, usable core at time of
purchase). Can be shipped UPS.
Also available is a “K” member with a bolt in center piece for oil pan removal without engine movement.

to mate to the stock type steering column at the firewall.

The F-body cars have a luggage compartment in the rear that we utilize for the fuel cell and batteries. To
isolate the driver’s compartment from the fuel cell, ed Quay Race Cars makes an aluminum kit to not only
provide for the driver’s safety, but also give easy access to top-off fuel cell and charge the batteries. An
aluminum case is pop-riveted into place and 1/4 panel fastener buttons hatch is used for effortless,
between rounds refueling. Because the fuel cell sump extends through the floor (no gas lines are routed
inside the car), we provide a cover that uses 1/4 turn panel fasteners under the luggage area. This not
only keeps out water and dirt, but also gives that finished, professional look for which we all strive. Kit
includes aluminum covers in luggage area, cover under fuel cell, two side covers (frame to outer fender
behind wheel tub) and all hardware required for simple installation.

ed Quay Race Cars also makes an aluminum cover kit for the large Street Car Fuel Cell.. This kit isolates
the driver compartment from the fuel cell and pump area. It features a 1/4 turn fastener access panel for
quick and easy fueling.
