9" rear? What size motor? Run the hard lines yourself its very easy just time consuming. Have you test fitted everything in the engine compartment to make sure the turbo is going to clear?

Yeah its a 9" that I narrowed here at the shop. It has moser axles and thats about it.. I'm not sure on what gears to go with or what posi unit. Anybody have any input on this.. The motor is a hke 408 with ported 317's. Keep in mind its going to be a street truck so no mini spool. Last night I put the front end together and it looks like its just going to clear. Its gonna be close!!!
