It's a good base to work from if you decide to go air-ride because you can get it slammed without major camber issues. I think that you and Joe could knock that out pretty quickly.

I attached some pictures on my build thread of the "Z" we just did. I'm not done yet, but you'll get the idea.
for me the pancake pretty easy and i dont have to mess with the floor. good info thanks kat!!
