Alright. Well I guess what I will do is just use skinnier tires and then widen all the fenders.... Looks like the only way right now. I hate when I have to fix other peoples screw ups. Not sure why the idiot that put this thing on here didn't think of the width first. Before I bought the car I specifically asked the guy many times if the front end will work and he said yes that it will. I will go talk to him in a couple days and tell him what I found out and see what he says. The guy is a real nice guy, it's the guy BEFORE the guy I bought it from that put the front end on. Oh well, I have about 3 months before I start this project, right now I need to get my truck up to par and then I will throw that body on the frame, put it all together and throw some 245/6015's on the front and see how they fit. If they don't then the skinniest I will so will be 205, even that is too skinny for me but nothing much else I can do.

i can not see a using short a arms a problem. the spring rate mite need to be changed . it could ride hard but that is not to hard to fix .this is not as hard as trying to get a big block in the s 10 sub .i check my 50 chevy it is 70 1/2 rim to rim with the cam front sub with stock a arms with 5 inch rims .i can get shorter by cutting the back faces of the rim 70 so if you go with steel rims custom go for more off set you could go down to 69 or 69 1/2 easily**)

Alright thanks Pat! Will air bags hold up such a heavy car with a big block? If not then I will have to go a 383 stroker motor. The only thing now that I need to decide is what wheels and tires and what motor. It will either be a 454 or 383 and then whitewalls and steelies or something like American Racing and nice 60 series tires.... Maybe even a Caddy motor since now I hear they are lighter than a 454 with aluminum heads... :?
