    We'll just when I think I'm gonna stay stock with the front suspension and 235 my ADD is causing me to drift...

    I've already rebuilt the stock suspension and did a light tune up on the engine [​IMG]
    As you can see I haven't test drive it but have ran it for a while.

    I found out the 235 is a Babbitt engine and the odometer says 22,700 miles. Don't really see any evidence of a rebuild and I it's a pretty save bet the odometer has rolled over...aaaaaand that's where I've been thinking of going LS on the engine

    Hit me with some of y'all infinite wisdom on "should L's..."

    -keep OG suspension and upgrade to disk
    -replace suspension hub to hub
    -if who roll call on what y'all have
    Thx

    Put a straight axel under it? With a 427 Chevy engine and a 4 speed. :D:D:D
