What would be the effects of lengthening the wheelbase of a car from 104" to 120"? For example, using a C5 suspension front and rear on a full size car. Same C5 pickup points, components, wheels, tires. Only thing changed is the wheelbase.

A longer wheel based vehicle will be more stable at high speeds but suffer in cornering ability. A short WB will be a good corner carver but could be twitchy in the triple digits.

Is a 120" wheelbase with a 62" track too long to expect some decent handling?
