well....the mach 1 is for sale....i miss the 67 too much....so now...its time to do research and figure out what i need to start looking into

First off, my ride (67 coupe) currently has 600lb coils up front with the shelby drop, mid eye leafs in the rear. Has a slammed look to it, which I like and would like to retain.

Im wanting to put a built 8.8" or 9" in the car

Viper spec t56

Twin Turbo 5.4 Mod motor

I know I am gonna have to chop the front shock towers....not sure which suspension to go with.

Car is gonna be setup for drag racing but will be weekend street driven as well.

Im thinking of streeting some 18" Magnum 500 wheels and drag racing some centerline convo pro's or something along those lines. I want a power brake setup with cross-drilled and slotted rotors. EFI will stay and help with the turbo setup. Im sure I need some heavy duty subframe connectors....not sure what other bracing I would need to handle the power properly.

Dont care about a/c

Power steering needs to stay

Thats about all my thoughts at current....any ideas/suggestions to help with me preliminary research?
