    Aftermarket center link?

    I don't know if it matters on a drag car or not but when You start changing center links it changes bump steer and ackermann. You might check out some circle track chassis builders that still run stock front clips.

    I've all but given up (searching).

    The later models like 92 or so are like 62" or 64" wide hub to hub. Some of them have 5on5 bolt pattern. I'm not sure about the earlier models.

    Transmission/Engine Angle?

    I normaly have the carb flange level on a Chevy engine that way the engine/trans will normaly take care of its self. I have ran the rear end at up to 5 degrees down with the engine set this way. Anything much more than 5 degrees on the rear and pinions don't last long.

    4.5" bore spaced sbc!!!

    I think alot of the aftermarket stuff uses big block cam bearings because they are bigger. I don't know if it because of not being able to get enough lift or for strength of the cam it's self or maybe both.

    4.5" bore spaced sbc!!!

    I have seen some 4.5" bore spacing SB2 heads on ebay. I'm sure for enough money You could get a set of billet ones made.

    4.5" bore spaced sbc!!!

    A 4.250 bore and a 4.250 stroke works out to be 482.33 Maybe the bore could be a little bigger but I think that would be it on the stroke. It would probably have a bad rod ratio IMO

    how to fit bbc in 85 monte ss with a sbc?

    383? is it worth the chance?

    If the pistons were for a 350 and You don't change the rods or the pistons then your piston will stick out the top of the block. One more thing a 400 main is bigger around than a 350. You will also need a small base circle cam or grind some of the rod bolts.

    longer than stock lower control arms

    I have 2 sets here that I used on My car with a 12 bolt rear. I used some rect. tubing about 1/8 thick. They worked for 5 years and I put a 9" in My car and got a set of BMR arms.

    will 6.5 bs fit with a full notch...

    They are back in there but I don't see why a shock wouldn't bolt on I have a piece of 1" square tubing with a hole drilled in it in place of a shock to hold My car up.
