Have it modified with swingouts that you can remove.

In the end the Moser 9" was not worth the money or effort since I don't track the car that much. I wont go into all the quality issues (leaks and an incorrectly set up center section that had to be replaced by Moser). Add in the gear whine and extra weight and for me it was more of a pain in the *** than a benefit. I wish there was a better aftermarket alternative but I have not heard of one.

Putting a 233/244 cam in a heavy auto car, and staying cathedral port. Think it was actually quicker before the h/c swap.

Buying a 2000 Camaro ss that was in an accident for $5000... Front end is all f*cked up, nothing aligns correctly and hood gap is bigger than the wheel gap...
