550-600HP 4spd suspension help

#1 that's because you haven't wised up yet and it'll be a money pit.
#2 this is the begining of the money pit and wont work well with a 4-speed.
#3 no but it you're already worried about money fagedaboutit.
#4 the widest slick should be around 8"x27"
#5 ladder bars with spring sliders on your stock springs and good adjustable
shocks. cost about $500+ or -

this is pretty much the way it will unfold, you will rip the u-joints out which will tear off the tail shaft of your 4-speed. :oops:you'll fix and/or upgrade that broken stuff. next you will rip all or most of the teeth off the ring and pinion.:oops: you will upgrade/fix those broken parts to a pro gear,spool and back brace the 8 3/4 rear. that should hold you for awhile. next the clutch linkage and shift rods will bend and you will fix that. :oops:now that you have the money pit well in hand the 4-speed sincros(my bad)will break and you will have to have the trans slick shifted.:oops: this is if you didn't screw the clutch up already and have to replace it with a high end one. :oops:oh by now you have figured out how to hook the hotrod up and then the 8 3/4" blows up again and you go to a dana.:oops:
see where i'm headed with this, if not please refer back to. #1:banghead:


x2 - almost verbatim. You're tossing around poer figures and an air of lots of experience. If you had experience with the higher power figures you'd realize a lot of hwat you have for a plan is going to cause problems if you really get your hands on that kind of power. It's a common issue when someone is familiar with FWD cars and wants to go RWD. RWD can hook, which means it's simimlar to sheering off the input shaft of your transaxle after you've upgraded the axles.
Your shopping list should include a dual disc clutch (because you're street driving it and a heavy pressure plate will be a lousy cruiser), a blowshield, and SFI flywheel, A Jericho 4sp, a new driveshaft, and a Dana 60 as an entry level approach. The suspension and chassis parts will be needed next if you hope to get decent times with it.
