thanks for the mini novel 2fnfast…you have some good points…i think i will stick with a nice cam and suspention…
i hear a lot of people going with an 8.8 ford rear? is that any better than the 12bolt?
and if i get this cam, how am i going to pass with the smog nazi’s now…
but i will not be putting 5k on my car per year, so can i still run the cam and not worry about emissions?
thanks for the help 2fnfast

yeah i have spoke with the guys at extreme chassis a good bit to
but take a look at this nothing is full prroof even the ford 9 inch has blown to pieces
yeah 8.8 is good ass rear end but there is so far only two companiens that i know of are making this set up for the 8.8
so what happens if that co quits making them and yours take a shit
i would call that up shit crick without a popcicle stick
gm-gm a wise man told me once–pewterss!!!
go with the 12 bolt and hurry cause im gonna be placeing an order with moser here prop in about two weeks be nice to get 3 at once and im driving up to pick them up so that will save u on shipping!! let me know pm
