And please keep the tubbing to a minimum! Every J-body conversion I have ever seen puts huge tires out back and kills whatever sleeper effect it might have (The one in your sig for instance). 275's should be more than sufficient to get it down the track with ease.

yeah that one really gives it away.. actually my biggest concern right now is what type of wheels to put on... since the bolt pattern wont match the factory wheels and I need to decide so that I can make the right spacing

Looking good Rick! Curious to are how your going to tie the rear together. I think I'll be given up the big time fabrication just for some upper links and just finishing cutting the bottom out of the Beretta. I have a C5 convertible that was in a fire that lower the Beretta chasis onto. It might be a little heavier than adding a bunch of rear end support. But will be a whole lot more ridged.
Keep is updated.

How close is the rack& pinion have? Maybe you can you can get a custom radiator made alittle bit shorted and angle it alittle so you can still use the intake. just an idea. custom rad can't be to much. I had mine made for the beretta for $150 so i could get my two front mounts to work and to het the headers to clear.
Other than that it is looking great can't wait to see that beast go down the road. Some rich man going to be pissed when you show him your taillight to his corvettes.
