Were you attracted to the Street Beasts b/c you could buy the "kit" in parts as you got ready for the $$ outlay, rather than having to buy it all at once?

If so, check out Shell Valley, I think they might work with you that way (and their kit uses a Ford 9" rear end....you could ship yours to them and they would shorten it and fit it to their chassis, might save you some $$).

Cheers, Dugly
