      Not that it really matters, but there are 2 Paul Newmans, 1 is the actor/driver and the other is the chassis guy.
      So master fabricator Paul Newman at Car Creations in Templeton, California, was called upon

      Kurt's a friend of mine. If anyone knows how to build a stout Dana 44,he's the man to talk to. Kurt owns a 90 ZR-1 with 700hp 415" LT5 built by Bill Kirchhofer in Fort Washington,KY.

      I am going with Waynes set up, I am going to use a dana 36 until it blows up, then I will look into a 44. I got my 36 for $200, it is hard to justify paying 10 times that much for the 44.

      I've bought and sold many Dana 44's for less than a grand. Dana 44's came in manual trans 85-96 Corvettes so there was a lot of them made.

      I got the whole enchilada for 200, it was a good deal. I have not seen a 44 sell for less than 1500 on ebay yet.

      I'm looking into doing the irs swap after looking into how much a nice 12 bolt would be it looks like not too bad of a deal. What kind of offset wheel would you use with this, what are you guys doing with the brakes, will the stock transverse leaf set the car at a good height or should coilovers be used (who builds them and how much) and lastly will using irs limit me in clearance if I were to do put in mini tubs.
