I'm going to run a mild 6.0 with 6 spd trans out to a built 9in.. I was smoothing and modifying a stock chassis but someone stole the frame and cut it up and Took it to a scrapyard. That made my decision to build the full chassis for the car pretty easy and I'm actually glad it happened now because this chassis will be way better. It has C6 Corvette in the front based off of an art Morrison chassis and it has a four link with a panhard bar in the rear. I also scored a sweet set of forgelines on here last year that were pretty much garbage but I re-hooped a few wheels, did some painting, powder coating, and now we're back in business. More to come soon fellas! Thanks for the comments, it's the best motivation!
Great project Pete. I'm a big fan of your work.

Not sure what 4 bar you are running in the rear but let me know if you might be interested in any billet parts for it. We've been working on a few things and would love to help you one the build. BBB support is my specialty.
