Should definitely be a beast when it's done and I love the way those wheels look on there. Good luck with the rest of the build

Using a 8.8, strange 33 spline axles, spool, and bracing the **** out of the rear and making a mount to use a tq arm....I think it will be easier this way than fabbing up the ford "4 link"

I did something similar on my old GTO. I used CE coilovers and all F-body stuff from BMR. Moser 9". Hopefully this will help a little https://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-in...in-almost.html
