We finaly got to go out and drive this thing this week end!!!
The first trip was to the gas station and the second was to the tag office.
The third trip out was to a local car show to check out the cars and give every one a peak at some new compatition. I still have a lot of work to do on the interior and i need to fab up some front iner finders. Its been alot of work to get to this point but well worth all the hard work and time i put in.
Enjoy the pics,, Ryan

I used an 8" dual diaphram booster. I found it on E-bay for $95 shiped.
i got the master cylinder from Jegs. i ground the rivets off the back of the factory booster bracket and used the factory bracket to mount the 8" booster to the fire wall. the four bolt patern on the 8" boster fit the 4 rivet holes pifictly on the factory bracket. you will need the pedal rod extinsion and clevis kit from jegs to make it work with you factory pedal. i atached a page from jegs with all the stuff on it.( http://www.jegs.com/p/JEGS/948836/10002/-1) but look around at e-bay and other places and you should be able to find this same stuff a little cheaper.. the brakes work great.

hope this helps. Ryan

Thanks,, im not completly sure of how many inches it is but i did the flip kit and 2 " drop shacles in the rear. and in the front it has the 3 inch belltech drop spindels and the 3 inch drop springs in the front.. so its around a 6 - 8 or 6 - 7 drop ??

If you don't mind, what backspacing did you use for the front and rear?
