    building a 66 nova w/a ls1 w/4l60e and a yank converter. would like to put a procharger on it, depends on money. i'm setting the car up w/a chris alston front end w/air ride tech suspension parts. need to make a decision on building the stock rearend or putting a 9" in it. the wheels picked out are intro vistas, sizes will be 17"s and 18"s or 18"s and 20"s still need to make a decision on that. one thing for sure i'll be on here looking for answers and asking questions. so be easy, 1st fi setup.pics coming

    I would do 17s and 18s on wheels, the cost of tires alone for those sizes will eat you up. Tires for 18s and 20s would be nutso

    I just noticed you weren`t sure on building up the stock rearend or going with a 9".

    Sounds like you are looking at making alot of power with a possible pro-charger...

    I`m not sure if you have a 10 bolt or 12 bolt, but a well built 12 bolt will hold up and uses less power to rotate.

    I`ve got a 3750 lb. car that I am gonna put a F2 pro-charger on and be making 1000 hp...Moser says no problem when using their "built" 12 bolt.

    Besides, keep it all GM...

    I would go with the 9" for the fact that it will be almost bullit prof if you get a good one. moser told me that with a manual you need a 9" and a auto you can use the 12 bolt
