Re: Lowering my 71 LWB

The front drop sounds good. I believe the spindle drops are 2.5" or 3" if using standard drop spindles, & 2" if using CPP's modular drop spindle. Just making sure you're aware of the variations.

The rear sounds good as well. You should be fine w/the 2" block if using 17's. Have you checked out board members/vendors No Limit & their JT build thread? They offer great insight & came up w/some nice rear shock/Panhard bar stuff....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
