Anymore updates on this build? Once I saw the V8 and all the low-buck fabrication I started to cringe... cause I know how hard it can be to re-engineer a car that wasn't properly modified to start with.

My 77 RX3-SP SCCA Pro Rally car had this problem... cause it was converted to a Ford 9" rear end and lifted quite a bit. Trying to make it go low again to be a proper pavement car wasn't easy... and ultimately didn't work out well at all.

Good luck!
