Hey Everybody! There's been a lot of progress from my last post. So far I have:
-1989 302 5.0 H.O. engine (used)
-Ron Morris Performance Efi conversion wiring harness
-SSBC front power disc brake package
-TCP front coil over conversion
-1967 front spindles & front end (used)
-2006 Foose Nitrous 17x8 rims & tires
-SSBC rear power disc brake package (to be ordered)
My latest question is what rear end to go with? My car is originally a 1966 coupe 6 cylinder, but I am not sure what size my original rear end is. Is it a 6" or an 8"??? If it's already an eight inch I know the answer to my own question. But if it's a 6 inch rear end, then I need to know where anyone can recommend purchasing a used 8" rear end full assembly with axles & 3.55 gears?????? I've already priced out a new Currie rear end assembly and it will cost me about $2,400! Also...does anyone know where to get a decently priced rear coil over conversion besides TCP? I hope someone can help me. Thanks!

true that!
if i was in your position,I'd do all the suspention and steering stuff first.
when you go to get brakes i'd buy some nice ones if you can buy them(baer brakes are the shit)the wilwood kits are cool. just commin' from me don't buy the stock discs (the kit from mustangs plus)they work but i regret buying stock brakes now
As far as suspention try MAIER RACING (510)581-7600
good luck need anything like parts and stuff pm me i'll see if i can help.good luck
