Your car is absolutely amazing! Picking up 40+ mph on the back half is just insane! People watching your car make a run have to be in shock. Keep up the great work!

I have them installed on my '67. The quality is excellent. I did have to drill new holes to mount them. They can be installed without removing the half shafts.
