Just the beginning...
 
Hey y'all. New here. Purchased a 62 step side with no engine or trans. Have also picked up a big block and turbo 400. I am wanting to leave the body as rough as it is and make it handle like a sports car(well, as much as I can.) Looking for a really good high hp cruiser that is easy to drive. I have zero experience with the x frame under my truck and was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction as far as suspension options. I am pretty mechanical and have built several engines but just never got into the handling side. I have read some posts on here and you guys know your stuff. Thanks in advance and I look forward to talking to everyone.

Hey, I don't have any insight into handling and high h.p but I just wanted to welcome you to the forum. There are volumes of info stored on the site and hopefully you can find more answers using the search bar, and perusing the other sections of the site i.e. the engines and drivetrain and the suspension, steering and brakes. The forum jump dropdown box will get you to those.
