im still running every piece of my slant suspension. drum brakes and 7 1/4 and very happy with it. the headers are my B Body small block long tubes. dont abuse the 7 1/4 and it will be fine. i am using a 26" radiator and fan shroud out of an 86 lebaron from pull n pay , 40 bucks out the door. i did this on the super cheap.
