Vette Front Suspension?

I have read the article, just wondering if anyone has done this yet? Its what I plan for my panel along with a 4 link rear. The 77 will be out of the way soon, so it looks like I'll be able to get this project rolling in September.

I guess no one has done this then. Does this mean I'll have to right a tech article?

Yes. That's a requirement. Please don't forget to document each step with a picture and written explanation. Spare no expense on this. Have fun. himmelberg

There is a vendor that sells a kit to install the Vette IFS on F100's. I think the name of the company is called "Flat Out Engineering". My buddy has put a couple of these under street rods. I would consider this on my next project.

I have two friends here in Middle TN who are using the 84-87 Vette front and rear on their 55' and 56' BW respectively. What questions do you have? Both of them have the frames done. One will run a 302 and the other will run a a Boatanchor 350. If I was savvy enough I would post pictures and such.
