69 camaro rear end travel help!

Four inches isn't enough. I agree with Dave, 6 inches gives you plenty of room to roam in extension and compression in a custom mounting application.

Throwing a set of long shocks on components that are engineered for a shorter shock isn't a good idea. You must mock things up and modify to make it work.

Old hot rodders "C" notch the frame rails when the clearance is tight... but you young guys wouldn't know anything about that...

I'm in mock up stage (or starting as of last month) and the whole rear frame is being handbuilt by a friend of mine and myself,so we can tweak things here and there.I may be wrong (wouldn't be thefirst time),but aren't the rear shocks or c/o usually of a longer travel than the front?I would like to get the max out of both ends within reason.Don't want to open too many cans of worms at one time,but want to consider both ends and make the wisest decisions that I can make.I don't think 4" is enough personally at either end.I would prefer at least 5" in front if possible.I don't want to step on anyones toes,but with channeling the body and reworking some of the shock mounts for adjustabity I could have enough compliance to get through some of the parking lot ramps around town cuz i intend to drive the crap out of it when It is running.
