    Considered IRS but going to just build my 8.8...do they offer drop in 8.8 with 9" ends?

    thank you for the detailed replies. i definitely see what you are saying and it makes alot of sense. when i say im a little OCD about overbuilding stuff im serious about that. it sometimes hinders me from enjoying what i have and leaves me in search of going way overboard. for instance...my...

    Considered IRS but going to just build my 8.8...do they offer drop in 8.8 with 9" ends?

    I overbuild everything lol. Im OCD like that. I have a tendancy to make everything more detailed and cause myself more work lol. That being said im building this car to handle whatever at throw at it if the need arises. From what ive seen 8.8 with 9" ends is a very common practice. I assume...

    Corbeau harness bar...schroth dot 4 point harness and racing seats on street car...safe?

    Car will probably never see a track. Drive maybe 500 miles a year (im in the country so everything is an hour away). Hate the factory belts and my drivers side isnt retracting right. Spent a few hundred on some "perfect" oem black belts that i couldnt even use. I mean my car has no back seat...

I just wasnt sure if it is any issue with the glass in place. After i strip and paint the...

    I mounted mine on the firewall...passenger side below the pinch weld where the heater core used to be...if yours is still there maybe you can find another spot in the same area...allows me to use normal length coil wire and it goes pretty much unnoticed
