Has anyone tried this kit out? I am looking to do a complete kit on my '71 Nova. Is this a direct fit kit, or does it require some modification?

The only mild modifications on your Nova would be you MIGHT have to tap a existing hole on a spindle and you will remake the axle tube brake lines. Also you will be re routing the new rear e brake cables to meet your original front primary cable. Nothing a home weekend mechanic cannot handle.

Otherwise a complete bolt in

We have sold 100s of these kits and are installed 2 kits in the shop this week. So we install what we sell, if you need help, were a phone call away

Sounds like exactly what I am looking for. I just don't know if I will be able to wait until Christmas. Looks like I may upset the wife yet again

Does it make any difference that my rear end has been slightly narrowed and I have C clip eliminators?

C Clip eliminators are a big problem. Wilwood does not make a kit for C Clip eliminators.
