Ok I thought I had it right. I used some of the info in your other build for my '69. STILL having a hard time with rear wheels. My approach is a bit different. I went with Smith Racecraft split mono's with there Assassin bars and rear roller sliders. I have OEM 15 X 8 Vette style rallys and MT 275 PRO tire. I found a 1966 L79 Nova 12 bolt that another racer had built and bought that. It too has 35 spline internals and C-clip eliminator kit. Was a BBc turbo in a 70 1/2 Z28 that was running 7.50's. So should hold up to my 475 inch 785Hp ZL-1.

And it all fits....L-O-L! It will likely settle down another 1/2-inch or so on the back. The front end height is adjustable (coil overs), but I'll have to wait to set it up until the engine, transmission and other bits are installed. I have a few more little things to do (for example, waiting on Steve Gregori for my hood hinges, catch and latch....he tells me after this, he's closing the doors). Then the roller is done (!!!) and I can concentrate on the fat block.
Sweet looking Nova. What a beauty. What size Big Block are you looking to build.
