Hello Everyone, I just brought home a 1970 Maverick 6 banger c3 auto 4 lugger car today and am going to try to stuff a 552 cu in (460) in it. I think I want to do a mustang 2 style, strut, rack and pion steering front end and do a 4 link rear end w/ a 9" rear end. Long long ago I worked in a race car fab shop and was around drag racing for a long time. I have not been involved with cars for some 25 years raising the kids and all that stuff. (their out of my house now and doing fine YEAH!!) anyway I digress, any suggestions on good articals or where to find info on front suspension and such would be apreciated. I guess I should say that I have lots of tools ,welders mig and tig and plan on doing most the work myself. Well cant think of anything eles to add for now. Thanks

from Northeast Pennsylvania Sounds like you are planning on doing a lot of the same things that I am doing. Except my engine is a 351 Cleveland stroked to 393. The speed shop should finally be finished up with it in a couple of weeks. :bananaman
most of the mustang vendors stuff can be modded just a bit and work great. keep us up to date on the mods. ps lots and lots of pix for the ones that are aspering to do the same mods
