I installed an 8.8 Tbird IRS in and original style frame. It was a bit of work, but it fit and was affordable and I was able to adapt the Ford uprights with my scratch built control arms to make it all work. Let me know if you need any pictures and I'll see what I can do. Much cheaper than the Jag IRS pumpkin and a much, much less than the Kirkham offerings and original style uprights.
If you are building a 289 leaf spring chassis and original uprights, this can also be adapted to that unit easily.
