Definitely consider the IRS over the live axle, much better for road racing/ handling. The BMW units are very strong. Ditto on the sbf, save the big blocks for the museum, you can get a Roush crate motor with a 2 yr warranty. Wilwood big brakes for sure, the standard single pot bmw on my BDR sucked. 17” rims will give you a lot more tire choices going forward, lower profile better handling, looks cool too!
