Hello all, just joined the group and I'm looking for some advice. I'm wanting to start to convert my chevelle over to a pro touring car and trying to figure out my best options. Suspension is the first on my list, and with so many options and this being my first pro tour build, I'm just looking for some pointers. I don't want to crush the bank, but I don't want to skimp if I'm going to do it either. I've been looking at the Hotchkis TVS kit, any thoughts? Also, does anyone know the best wheel and tire size to fit in the stock wheel wells? Some specs on the car are: 454 with alum top end, 4 wheel disc brake conversion with 2" drop spindles (still in the box, basically stock style setup- nothing like Baer or the other brands, but it does have drilled and slotted rotors). Won't be doing any real racing with the car, maybe a track day here or there, just like the look and wanting to get some better cornering. Thanks in advance for the input.

Chad
