[full foot notch]

heh, most likely i could, but i would have to weld on a mount system onto the rims, and then bolt it to that, cause i dont think they make rockwell pattern spinners

 

[full foot notch]

interesting info, looked up the specs of the tire, 9.00R20 equals out to 40.1-40.9" tall(depending on location of info) and about 10.5 wide :-D , doing the math, thats 20.5 radius, so a 46 is 23 and a 49 is a 24.5, makes ya think dont it

 

[034x4]

Damn ^^ I was about to say I thought it was going to be bigger than that, but I had no idea those tires were ~40" tall!

 

[full foot notch]

does anyone know which motor is small dimensionally, a 350SBC or a 302 SBF , trying to cram one of them in htere without having to do a bodylift and keep A/C

 

[RockRanger]

I would guess the ford is smaller. I know in jeeps the ford motor fits in easier then teh chevy does. Also the chevy has a rear distriputer which could be a real PIA to get to, where the ford has a front one. That thing is huge. Still not sure I like those real tall blocks/spring perches but if it works then so be it.

 

[full foot notch]

its actually perches/stands that are welded all the way around, it wraps around the sides of the axle so it cannot move any, trust me, it wont move

 

[seafarer76]

I think the concern with the perches is not that they will shift, but that having such a large displacement from the axle centerline to the spring mount puts a lot of torque on the springs. Usually, large blocks between the axle and spring will result in lots of spring wrap because of this torque.
