Sorry felt sorta obliged to comment.What a waste of an awesome build thread. WHo gives a shit if he is putting a hampster in his coupe. Arent we all fans of cars in general. All I have to say is I didnt see where the OP asked for advice so as far as that goes Id say keep your advice to yourself. As far as proving someone wrong unless he is selling something or harmfully misleading other members why not just keep it to yourself. Anyhow the swearing and i-gangstering is old but never the less entertaining. Thanks for passing this last 15 minutes on this crap ass day.

good point r1 i just started this thread for other peoples enjoyment. not to argue about the process of building big ci bbf and bbc engines. 69-91 already plagued this thread with his b.s. so im just not gonna respond to anything he says. whether hes right or wrong. unlike him i have things to occupy my time that are positive not negative.


so build update: the rear end is gonna be put together soon. hopefully ill drop it off at scotts speed and custom in antioch this week. im just waiting for the axles spool and ring n pinion to get here from strange. if you guys dont know scott hes a really cool guy that knows his shit. they build anything from drag bugs to full out tube chassis cars. he narrowed my 8.8 for me. i had him take off 2.5" on each side. he straightened the tubes and completly welded the tubes at the mid section. they also installed early ford 9inch ends so i can eliminate c-clips and c-clip eliminators.they are a dealer for alston stuff. those ends use a big bearing so u can uitlize the actual size of the axle tube and go up to a 33 spline axle. the bearing is pressed on the axle and uses the brake caliper plate to hold the axle in the rearend.initially i was looking at a strange rear brake kit.but i dont wanna pay 600 for the kit. so i ordered some north race car brackets for a big ford end using sn-95 brakes. the cool thing tho is sn-95 brakes are a 2.50 offset and strange sells a kit thats also 2.50 offset so if i wanna upgrade later i can without getting new axles or the old ones re-cut and re-splined.ill post some pics when its done and back in the car. oh yea ill be running 4:30 gears

yea its mini tubed im only running 28X10.5 but they used to stick out of the wheel well and i didnt like the look very much. it was limiting my ride height and coilover adjustments. ill get some pics up. i did it myself. i just cut the old wheel wells out and the shock mount i removed all the brackets on the frame i had to section the frame in the rear because it tapers out. i believe i have 16inchs in the center 14 in the rear and 17 in the front of the well. but i am using the stock lca mounts on the rear so i can prolly fit a 31x12.50 without any issues. it took me about 4 days to do and about $50 in materials. the exspensive part is getting the rear end narrowed
