Default Ruut's LS powered widebody build

I have a 04 that I bought as a rolling chassis. I decided to build it into a LS1 powered Widebody street legal race car.

Will do! I should have the steel back from the machine shop for the diff. I'm putting a built 2010 Camaro diff with 3:73 richmond gears. I talked to driveshaft shop about custom axles and they are on standby awaiting my measurements. I will post up some pics of the diff. The mount should be a new part available from Import Muscle soon.

Wheels are custom SSRs.
18x10 et35 front with 295/30/18 r888s
18x12 et24 rears with 335/30/18 r888s

I also have the T-sport wide body coming from ilovebodykits.com. It should be here in a week or so.

Can I fit these with a roll? J/K Can't wait to see this done. It will be a beast. Good luck!

I doubt you can get that much roll. Here is a better angle.
