Rizdif, I'll be at the Clinton car show tomorrow if you are interested. PM if you plan on going!

My exhaust is longtube Hedman headers, into a custom X-pipe then 2.5" pipes to Magnaflow mufflers. It gives it the deep retro mellow sound of the swingin' seventies! It's great under WOT, though.

For my front I have 2.5" drop spindles and the Air Ride bags. For the stance you see, I ride 80psi in the front. With that hardware, I can lay the front on the crossmember/headers.

The rear does not have a notch. I used the shock relocator, with the adjustable super trac bar (I recommend), the KYB shocks and the Firestone towing airbags. I ride 25 psi and it gives me about 2-2.5" of travel. I also removed the rear bumpstops.

Early Classics and GMC Paul were great help. I hope that answered some of your questions. I'll post some better pics tonight or tomorrow. My burnout broke one of my U-joints...if it ain't breakin' I'm not trying hard enough!
