Has anyone here done this with a Shadow?
Putting a small block in.
Any pictures of leaf sprung rear suspension, I saw someone mentioned using caltracs?

I've decided to put converting my 85 off for another year. Need to make sure I have all the things I want figured out. And I wanna have a GOOD place to do it, preferably my own place...

thought i would check back and update a little.
i have the 5.7 hemi and T56 6 speed in and have been making engine mounts for the new hemi now.
i also started making frame sections that run from the firewall to the rear bumper and all you have to do it trim out the original frame rails and the spare tire well and the new frame fits right in , all the welding on the frame itself is finished.
cant remember how to post pictures so here is a link to some.

i just finished an 88 daytona with a 6.1 hemi, 6 speed with a tri 4 bar rear suspension that i really liked. we used wider wheels and trimmed up the wheel tubs and it hooks pretty good.
i should have one of the cars at carlisle, pa this year for the mopar show , i will be in the vendor area, spaces j37-39 if any of you get up that way.
