Hi All

I am currently in the process of building a '54 resto-mod (Here in Australia)with C5 front suspension using a front clip that I got from Art Morisson and I am interested if anybody has used this front clip and what front shock measurements you may have used??

I would need to know the shock length extended and collapsed measurements??

My Car reads like this:If your interested??

'60 Front windshield frame

Modified '54 door now with '57 inner door skins and windows.

383 Kinsler injected SBC
using FAST efi

Kiesler 5 speed T-45RS

C5 Art Morisson front suspension
Art Morisson Trianglated 4-Bar rear
Both Grafted to the original Frame with Some big mods....

'61 front seats re-trimmed in Red leather(custom pattern)

18"x8(F) & 18"x9(R) BOSS 304 wheels.

Currently doing the body work to get ready for paint.

Thanks
Jason

my front shock at ride ht measures 10" so you need a shock approx 1 1/2 either side of that
