Pro Street C10 ... here I go

If you have been following my posts thru my "parts collecting" and "planning" stage on this forum you understand where I am going with my C10 drag/gasser project.

Experienced as all of you are you already know I was coming to this point and can probably guess or anticipate what is next!!!

Having made the decision to go with a pro street rear with narrowed 9" I am now looking for the "best way" to accomplish my goal.

I have found a local source for getting the rear axle housing narrowed "correct lenght". I know I will have to determine how much to narrow it .....

I also know if I stay with the truck/trailing arm setup the trailing arm angle and lenght will change as the trailing arms are re-located inboard so the whole setup will have to be modified.

I already have a HiPo kit for the C10 trailing arm suspension setup(http://hotrodstohell.net/truckarm/tr...uckarm_c10.htm)
that I would like to use. But being I do have limited resources for fab work/parts I am now looking for the best and hopefully the easiest way to do this.

I wonder if there are places that offer parts, kits, plans or anyone who has "been there... done this" with words of advice, ideas for me.

Thanks again....much MORE come.... but then you already KNOW that....HA!!
