Just a suggestion...
If you plan on putting any power to ground and hooking you should forget about Goodrich T/A's. Rock hard tires.
You want this car to handle in curves,those tires will not hold. Hate to see you wrap it around something after all the work you are fixing to put into it.
I want a harder compound tire. If she hooks up too much. The 7.5 will explode. I've ran a 396 in a 79 Monte Carlo. The pin that went through the spider gears, seared in half. Axles came out. Car got wrecked. Imo.... These rear ends are junk.
They're reasons I'm a Ford fan. We don't have to deal with crappy, glass axle GM rear ends. However, this car called my name. So I gotta deal with it.
BF's are a decent wide tire in the rain. The cars being set up "drag style". Cornering is out the window with 15x5's.
Roll it up on 2x6 sections.
Or, get one of these ...
Hydraulic Jacks · DK13HLQ · AC Hydraulic A/S
Made my life so much easier
Damn. 2x6's......Why didn't I think of that?
You GM guys are pretty bright.
