Just another 4th gen F-body

Why not put a 12 bolt in it instead of the Ford? Then if you decide to
run Stock, and haven't enhanced the wheel wells, you can. J.R.

Yeah, I've considered it most definitely, but 9"s are just more plentiful and cheaper. With that being said, it's making me lean more towards Super Street as the category that I'd probably be more suited for.

It looks way better than the Cuda that I started with. Good Luck and have fun!

A lot cheaper to run Super Street and light years easier running 10:90's with unlimited cubic inches.

Exactly, spot on! Since my car is a 97, it just really doesn't give me many options engine-wise if I wanted to try and build it for Stock.

possibly with minor outside cosmetic alterations if necessary to look like another year car OR you could just claim the car as another year such as a 1996 or whatever--FED

Do you know if they check vin numbers to verify that kind of change? Because the gentleman I bought it from changed up the front on it from the 93-97 front to the 98-02 and added tubular bumper supports. If that is the case, then I am going to go out today and snag a 98 LS1! Lol!

My junk pile compared to a 'Cuda?! I'd send my Camaro off into the lake if I could get my hands on a 'Cuda!!! Want to trade?! *Kidding!

Give me a Cuda with a 440, and we can call it good!
