I think it makes sense from your side of the equation to put a 9 inch in it and copy the 4 link from the COPOs since that's what you are familiar with, it works, and it's already legal. But if a guy just wanted to do minor fab work with the cage and bolt in front suspension, is there a path for running the car with the OEM transmission and rear end? I feel like just because the rule book says you can put a 9 inch in the car if it was built after 2008, you shouldn't be forced to if you don't want to.

Let's not forget that a Corvette can swap out to a solid rear axle which is obviously a long way from the way they came from the factory, no one seems to be concerned about that deviating from original. NHRA approved that a long time ago, how is this any different? On that same subject, a Corvette legally be run with the original IRS if they so choose but I doubt anyone would.
