Hi Jeff,
When evaluating the suspension, imagine this as a modified 65 fastback, not a modified 03 Cobra.
That being the case, the differences from stock 65 are....
1) Wider track both front and back (just look at the flares used and you will get a good idea as to how much).
2) McPherson strut front sus with power rack and pinion (not as good as unequal "A" arms, but much better than the 65 stuff especially with the Maximum Motorsports mods).
3) IRS rear (not the best IRS, but much better than the 65 rear especially with the Maximum Motorsports mods).
4) Much, MUCH stiffer chassis.
5) Better weight distribution (the 4.6 sits back farther than the typical Windsor small block).
I hope this helps
Bob
