Thanks, I've heard that "build a good chassis" line quite a bit in the last few weeks. It's unfortunate that I bought basically a ton of parts for the money I spent, however, like you and others have said, it could save my life someday.
Another idea I had was to put a stock 300 in it and run it like that. (how dangerous can a 14.00 sec car be?) Next spring I'll have something, but as of right now I have no idea what it will look like.
