    Lookin' good. The Corvette MC has a different bolt spacing than the Ford. You'll need to oval the holes a bit to get it on there. You could probably use a Ford MC if you remove the factory residual pressure valve from the rear brake port.

    Get it ready for regionals in Salem OR.

    Pat,

    Thanks for the tip on the Mc. I knew about the corvette needing to have the holes ovaled..

    Which Ford Mc would you suggest, and how do you remove the residual valve?

    Nice. I think the rear end needs to be dropped about an inch. But that is just me.

    the car is parked on a downward slope.. I'll post a pic of the other side it looks worse..

    I agree pat, but when I lowered the rear 1" the rear tires would rub on corners with 2 kids in the back seat..
    So back to stock ride height it went..

    Maybe if I add a larger front sway bar the body wont roll and I can lower the rear again..
