Thanks for the info guys!!!
I had no idea that a 3-link is a better handling setup versus the Torque Arm design. I always thought that the longer center link helped in braking versus a shorter center link. The shorter is better for the take off, helps dig off the line?
The main reason that I am really liking the C6Z06 setup is the overall parts cost is MUCH less than the solid axle. I can find a complete drivetrain for about $15-$17k (engine, drysump, front/rear suspension, transmission, Acc drive, etc), and doing the solid axle chassis I would be buying a new engine and transmission and that alone would run about $15k for the engine and $3-$5k for the transmission.
I know most people have to pay tons of $ for shop work, but my father and I do everything.
He has built numerous hot rods including this 69...

So my decision comes down to the parts cost only, I don't have to take labor into account. Yes, the C6Z06 option would be MUCH more expensive overall if I were paying for the shop labor.
