VERY nice.    :worshippy  High level stuff.     I need some Baer products soon here.Which kit is so backed up? The fronts or the backs?   Robert.

Thanks,  we didn't have issues getting the front or rear 6S calipers & 15" rotors (big brake kit for a corvette) so I don't know which kit you are referring to.

That is good ground clearance, i was expecting you to say something around 3.75" which would of been a bit on the wild side.....but 4.5" will be a great height, and very drivable.

I agree with Dutch and his comment about the thought process needed for this caliber of a project.  Any news about the 33 aswell.
Keep posting, looking great. :2thumbs:
