61 tempest front end
Which do you guys feel has more potential mustang 2 based suspension or graft s-10/g-body on for front end. I already have made a g-body handle very well but do not no the ability of mustang 2 based front ends. All the protouring specific front ends seek to start at 5000 dollars and go up from there so out of my budget. also considering a 88-96 vette stub but while not as high as a protouring specific front suspension more than g-body based. What say the experts. Thanks Rod

I seem to remember those cars having a decent front suspension to begin with. Front steer, solid control arm busings and a decent size spindle. Might want to contact Marc and see if he could make up a set of SPC fully adjustable uppers for the front..

You must be thinking of a different front end. Very light weight, negative caster, strut rod end lower control arm. I have one I drag race would not want to scream around corners with it.

Ya I'm wrong.. Maybe it was a 63 Le Mans I was thinking of.. Thanks Rod.. Pretty cool drag car, reminiscent of Micky Thompson 421 special.. I had a few 421s they ran good for there time..

I believe they share front suspension with the Corvair. You might want to look into what is available for those.
