Mark,

Thanks for the thoughts. As Rick said, I ordered my car sans differential as I had to have the Salisbury rear end to qualify for vintage racing. Dennis was able to point out a couple of things from the start that we will be working on. He also is going to manufacture a set of spacers, 1/2", and two at 1/4" so that I can play with the lowering and find an optimal performance level. Dennis is also going to see if he can get some brake cooling brackets that attach to the rotors to focus the air coming from the cooling ducts and more directly cool the brakes.

Jim
