$2500 + for a 12-bolt will put a lot of power on the road. Alot of money just to burn rubber.

a lot of people are starting to get an 8.8 rear end out of fords and adapting them to fit f-bodies...might be something to look into

no need for a 4 link. the torque arm style suspension is a awesome suspension that is good to go faster then you'll probably ever take the car. id go 9" or s60 check out strange engineering too. exotic performance plus can get you a 9" for probably the best you'll find. and for suspension id hit up places like spohn bmr and umi
