I am accustomed to Fox bodies so this is new territory for me. I know the II uses C-4's (good). Are there anyproblems with the smaller bellhousing regarding parts availability and strengthening the C4 for track use?
1. Are parts (especially posi units and varied gear ratios) available for the 8 inch rear? Can it be made to take the power needed to run 12's or 11's?
1a. Are there any 8.8's or 9 inch rears that are bolt ins?
2. What do you guys do about subframe connectors (I assume the frame must be made more rigid)?
3. Anything else I should know about the unique attributes of the II?
4. What does the coupe actually weigh on the scales? (Curb weight is listed at 2640 but I think that is without fluids and some other essential items).
I haven't bought the car yet, but I intend to, at this point; so, answers to these questions are important
Thanks in advance.
