I gurantee a test drive will reveal some truths about what you have there and what "fits".

I guess a little late advice is better than nothing. I think the first step is to actually measure this time (like I originally had suggested to you) and see what that reveals as far as fitment. I think two of my choices are going with an 11" wheel or possibly a 4" backspace among others---but that remains to be seen. I just got my T-56 Magnum in today and as soon as that's in, I'll be putting some miles on her and we'll go from there. The purpose of this thread was never to coerce you to pay for my wheels (heck I knew that wasn't gonna happen when I saw Justin on Chevelles.com asking for info on rear ends). The purpose was to show other folks (especially those new to the hobby) that not all is as advertised and to be aware of these issues with you AND other vendors on this site. I knew it would not be popular, but felt if someone had brought up these issues, I would have made better decisions. I'm sure this will save everyone a lot of frustration (and money) in the long run.
