They wouldn't work and would most likely hit the frame. Didn't we already go over this? https://www.pro-touring.com/forum/showthread.php?t=29575

Here are a couple pics of the frame pockets installed on a 57 Chevy we just finished. We used a half leaf coil over conversion set up, but you would get the same effect moving you full leafs in. We got the spring pockets from Ecklers, but we could have easily made them. As mentioned before, it is really very easy to install. We fit a 315/35/17 drag radial with room to spare.

You can see there is room to spare with the 315s

The 315s really give it a nice look, and they really help TRY to contained the 750HP monster.

It has nothing to do with leaf springs, but I just had to add a pick of the beast within. A All Aluminum 572CI! Makes my tonque hard everytime I say it out loud, LOL!
