SWB or LWB - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well, I have my 1960 home and have been making plans.
Got a body man all lined up for the cab and front fenders.
The plan is to use a 63-66 frame, and eventually air bags and a 4 link.
This will have a big block, and besides power, I want good weight transfer to the rear tires and good handling.

As it sits, it's a LWB. But I kind of like the SWB look. If you were after performance and handling, which wheelbase would you go with?
