Re: wbr 66
i like what you're doing. I'm trying to find a 2wd frame around here, and have similar plans for my build, but I'm getting rid of my 350 and going with a 327 L76.

Re: wbr 66
I've never did understand why GM used that light duty driveshaft and carrier bearing setup. Seems like most guys have trouble with them. I would consider switching to the heavier setup.
