[QUOTE="TXPD, post: 11336145, member: 46922"] make no mistake about it. the s197 chassis(05 and up) is far superior to the older stuff. these cars including the boss 302 are engineered to handle with the stick axle. my suggestion would be to start with an 05 gt as the cheapest starting point. the amount of aftermarket work required to get an 04 and older chassis to handle like a stock 05 and newer chassis is significant. if you start with an 01 you will be wanting and 05 before you know it. example. i had a very nicely developed 95 cobra r race car. built by the best with three way adjustable shocks and 14" brembo brakes added. i got my fr500c and the first day shake down, i took 4 seconds off my best lap time in the cobra r at road atlanta. i am now running 6 seconds faster than the R. the R had 40 ft lb of torque more than the C and the C had 25 whp more than the R. same brakes. its all chassis.
