requesting feedback about wheelbase length
 
Racers,

When I built the original Super 10 it was a standard cab, short bed, 108" wheelbase. It worked will and I enjoyed the truck. I am considering building another, the thing is the 108" short trucks are becoming had to find in a clean, straight core. [note, the Super 10 was, at times, a bumper dragger]

The extended cabs are easier to find in good condition, they are 122" wheelbase.

So, my question, how would the 122" wheelbase work? Would it be a consistent runner, a capable winner? [of course, would be less prone to wheel stand, but it that a good thing?]

And I am planning this to be my personal bracket racer with either a small block or LS engine, maybe an aluminum block LS3 package. The power will be 650 - 700 range.

Let me hear y'all feedback about short vs long wheelbase.
