    Thank you for doing all the hard work so i can copy it when i get to doing mine. hahaha I have a slightly more centered rear on my FF 80 though with the short side lengthened.

    I would be interested in your DXF as well. We use Solid works here. I was a long time Autocad/ inventor user and switched to solid works with my latest job, we do alot of small part and machine design so it works well in solid works. Maybe we should start a Ih8mud cloud for cut files? I...

    yeah a little, but i would not guess much more than 12. Unless you can drive 55 unlike ZZ top. end of the day it is about smiles per mile though.

    I wouldn't bank on much better fuel mileage just from smaller displacement seeing as you are still turning heavy 37" tires and pushing a vehicle that has the aerodynamics of a brick house. unless you go diesel. They have a higher internal efficiency vs gasoline motors. the new direct injected...

    Do it! if you can handle the budget then i bet it would be a really good combo in a 40. probably cheaper swaps for the HP but it would definitely be different and probably let you push the whole drive train forward some to help with rear driveshaft length.

    I havent done it personally but i have played with fiberglass repair on boats and on a corvette and it was not that bad. I wouldnt think the roof on the FJ top would bebad especially since it is on the roof and not many would see it...lol. Don't be scared by fiberglass is all i am saying. I...

    yeah i figure my 2nd gear would be about half of the granny 5.61 at 3.06 so forward you kind of have a half low but reverse is only one speed. I had a 22r dual case before on 5.29's but i am thinking with the added torque of the v8 i probably don't need to be wound up as much making it feel...

    That is a expensive option but a cool one. I am interested in your 4 link rear solution. I am building a LS/NV4500/3.8 Atlas in my 73 and have been contemplating a rear link setup. I would love to have a 2.5 and a 5.44 low but my atlas fell into my lap for a steal and i dont really want to add...
