Cal tracs
« on: August 31, 2016, 08:20:53 pm »
Hey guys. Got a 87 shortbed project gonna throw a bbc in getting some plans together for. Looking at lowering it 6/4 (3" spindles up front maybe trim the springs flip kit in rear with c notch from bell tech). Want to run a cal trac setup. Question is, will cal tracs work well with this much of a drop and c notch. Are there any clearance issues or anything else I may need to look at. Thanks ahead.

Anybody have any info on this. Also would long tube headers would scrape the pavement.

I've read many different times that long tubes are not a good idea with that much of a drop. Most go with midlength's
