When I think "something different" with cars that usually removes almost all GM products

I respectfully disagree... I have to admit, the hi-po manifolds look pretty cool and if that comes at a cost of increased steering stability Im all for it.

LOL a guy on counting cars told them he wanted something different... and they built him a 70 Nova... Fail

If you don't wanna swap exhaust manifolds, speedway motors carries a ton of steering parts. if you have to cut the shaft anyway theres several options for attaching it. I always hated the rag joints, like theres not enough slop in the steering already... hell you could put in a collapsible...

while theres some knowledge being spread around, how is the front suspension geometry? I'm mostly wondering about the excessive positive camber gain cars of the era all seem to share. Didn't feel like it warranted a new thread, not trying to hijack this one :elmer:

George, your fury is now my desktop background. That is a gorgeous car

As a last resort I think ARP will make you whatever you want/need, and itll be American made and of the highest quality

unfortunately my internet sucks so... no youtube... I may just be unfairly biased against leaf springs from my high school years driving a series of lifted K 20s. I'd also like to run shockwaves out back, which I didn't mention.

I just want an idea of what to expect... all the torque arms ive seen have been on relatively lightweight vehicles with a much shorter wheelbase, although I know some guys use them for drag racing, so im sure the strength is there. I guess the main thing is that I intend to do all the work...

I don't actually have either one yet... ive been saving for a few years and settled on a C body, but I live in Michigan a im not gonna buy one around here, too much rust. So now I have to save for a plane ticket and several (hundred) gallons of gas to get it home. I wanted to plan it all out in...

Wanted to say that I don't street race, but we do like a good blast from standstill to 55 MPH, which is the speed limit out in the country where I live

Ok, I'm new to the forums, and im a car guy, not brand loyal for the most part, but ive got a thing for cadillacs and c-bodies, especially the New Yorker and Newport. My real question here is about rear suspension options. I ve spent many hours trying to find a kit to swap the leaf springs for...
