I have a 1973 Grande, with 351 Clvd. I have parked it until August or so for the following upgrades:



Bigger Cam

Rebuilt Heads (2V) from friend

New chain

Roller Rockers

3.5 in rear end (currently 2.75)

Tractions Bars

750 4BBL (currently 600)

Rebuild C-6 , shift kit, and 2,200 stall convertor (I'm having that done!)

New Cragar S/S (15x10) in rear ...

This is where I need the help. I am pretty sure I can fit 295/50-15's without modification...am I mistaken? I am very new to suspension work...what would it take to lift the back-end 1.5 inches? One person said spacers on my shocks, but that seems ridiculous at the strain created before I parked it. Also, will the 15x10 cragar wheels fit with 4.25 inch backspacing and the 295's?



This is my first post to forum...looking forward to offering advice if any I can and I appreciate any help. Also, what are some weight reducing ideas maybe I haven't thought of.



Appreciate it, sethperry@pepalum.com
