I'm with the no-vote guys. I had researched this in depth for a buddy years ago and even spoke with Rodger at the time. The retro fits I had seen (another never competed project) put the frame very high into the cabin and limited headroom. The Vette frame is wider and ergo the foot print works better as intended with a wider car. Not to mention the torque tube mods...

I have seen one where the builder widened a Camaro body and dropped it on top, 'a-la' West Coast Customs style. The car seemed to work ok, but visually you could tell it was not a catalog Camaro (lol).

AJ your project is so awesome ... the parts selection, design and fab work thus far. I say keep plugging ahead.

Hope you don't mind my .02
