Thanks for the responses. I would like to apologize for doing the 'list of parts, is this good?' I sort of posted before I had read very much...and I am at "home" for new years and the interenet here is just dial up and I am runnin' around quite a bit so I didn't have much of a chance to read some of the great advice that is already out there. About the ex nascar style car it sounds good to have a solid frame and whatnot but I was hoping to make it quite solid and handle quite well with as little chopping of the original body as I could. I'm sure there's gonna be some cutting and whatnot but I'd like to keep it at the minimum while still attaining great handling. And as for IRS it looks great and works great but I do intend to also take this car to our little track up here. I'm sure IRS could be made to launch very well and do all great things but for some reason reading about IRS in stock form cars musta' made me shy away from it. I'll have to read more and see what is being done to make these cars less prone to wheelhop. I really look forward to learning more about PT ideas and thank all of you for helping out...next time I'll read a little before asking.
And Piet, I hadn't decided for sure but I think I would rather ship in than have work done in Edmonton, since I have not seen or heard of a lot of shops that delve into what we are looking for on our cars. I've talked to some and I didn't get a real confident feel about some of the places. Now it could be that I'm just looking in the wrong places though. Do you have any shops that you have used with success? For my engine machining I used Pro Stock Performance and Machine and he referred me to a guy who does chassis work, tubs, etc. Have you heard of Stormy's Street Rods?? It's good to finally find a place that has all the knowledge I'm looking for. Anyway, I think this reply is quite long enough for now. I'll check into DSE for now and come back soon!
