Thats my plan, is the fullsize chevy. It is the same frame width as my frame I have now, and I am pretty sure the stock arms wont push the wheels out any further than the twin beam setup I have right now.

I think the hardest part is going to be getting the steering to work together as I want to keep the column I have no because its 3 on the tree.

I'm doing a Full Size chevy front frame clip on a 80s F150, in all the WMS (wheel mounting surface) was a few inches shorter. Building the frame with 2x4 1/4" wall square tubing. I'll post current pics soon with it.

the Carroll Smith books are great for everyone. I highly suggest them also, My old man bought the engineered to win about 15 years ago when I was starting to tinker with cars.

so you suggest I use 2x4? I plan on having a good bit of cross member support, but I was looking at 2x3 1/4 wall. I will be getting the book late this week as I had to order it. All they had was the "Nuts, Bolts, and Fastener" book, but I plan on ordering the engineer to win as well, once I get some extra cash.
