I have a customer that wants to relocate the fuel tank and install a IFS front clip. Any help and advice is welcome.

Re: 50 c3100

There are lots of threads about this sort of thing. I've seen MII IFS Nova/Camaro subframes, Monte Carlo subs and even a Dodge dakota IFS. Some like myself are doing a narrowed 73-87 front crossmember and suspension. Alot of it depends on what you want the finished job to look like, sit like, etc. Remember that you will get tons of opinions on which way to go, some like this but hate that and vise versa.
Try doing a search and read through the threads, and check out their pics and see which way you'd like to go.

Re: 50 c3100

I didn't mean to sound like a dick...I re-read it and it sounded *****y. I just meant to say that there are so many different IFS threads on here that there's no doubt you'll find what you're looking for...
