That rear end set looks awsome. Seems that there should be some cons though. Don't mean to negative, just seems awkward that something so good that is been widely used in nascar would be used so little on street cars. I'm really very very interested. Hopefully someone can comment on this set up who has good experience. Why wouldn't any of the pro's have used this before? Steilow, Foose, ect. Surely they are aware of these.
Please someone educated on suspension chime in. It looks to be the answer to everything. Good ride, great handling, and will make our G-machine hook better. Seems like heaven
Thanks for the great info.

Randy,
The only experience I have with the suspension is in my 68 Chevy C10. The truck is definately not set up to handle right now though... and it won't be since I'm selling it to do a Camaro.
Some of the cons of the setup in a car are exhaust clearence. It's possible to get it around everything but not easy. Also, hotrodstohell's kit requires cutting out the rear floor pan, I believe to run braces and extra space for the truck arms. Last thing is that the truck arms are very long and fairly heavy.
I'm sure others have more info on geometry and design, but not me....
