The motor is a 454 the steering box is new the front parts are like 75% new an still in great shape the springs r bad because they r for a small block but gave me the look I wanted, an the body mounts r about two years old so I say they are good also


Thanks would u know what would be a good number to go with if I drive more interstate? But I want to corner good if I need to u know! Thanks Jason

I tend to corner hard and don't do a lot of long distance straight line but I'll be watching front tire wear closely. You can see by the before and after data that major adjustments and improvement were made. Straightline stability under braking is much improved, the additional caster should help it out at higher speeds.

If the camber wears the tires too quick SPC upper control arms will be installed.
