Im looking to buy a narrowed rear for my 72 Nova which has tubbed.
I know stock is around 60" wide...
I want to install 18 or 19 x 11 wheels with a deep look, around 6" lip.
So my guess is backspacing is 5"....

What is your overall axle width of ours, with the disc brakes on?
55" wide?
Any pics

This is 54 1/4" disc to disc mounting surface 17 x 11 5.5 BS and 2002 Camaro rear brakes.

My suggestion is to get your rims and tires set the car to the desired height with the wheels with rotors bolted to the rims in the well with no rear end. Place the tire where you want it and measure your width as everycar is different. Then set up your housing width taking in account your required disc brake mounting offset.
