the chevelle chassis is a full frame, double wishbone front k link back... a bolt on airride suspension will get it close to 1G lateral... and the mounts were bodymounts.... there is no need to have the frame as unsprung weight in relation to the body.... you need all the regidity you can get.... boxed frame, solid bodymounts... i have that in my bu (a g body chassis is VERY simmilar to an a body, save for 5-6 inches in width and minor differences in steering geometry)
the nova is removable (crappy) front "frame" and leaf rear.... it will take a larger investment to get it on par with a well built "bolt on" a-body... but its lighter so you get more bang per horsepower....
