Hi all,

I'm in the process of converting my 327 Renegade 1976 to LS Series power. Presently the chassis is factory stock. I'd like to find a capable shop to: at a minimum, install an inner long kit (Engman), and a GT kit. As for the GT kit I want someone that is capable of opening it up and installing on the inside. If anyone can suggest a capable shop I'd appreciate it? With 400+ horsepower going in, do I need to go beyond my plans? If I must add a cage I want a very minimal clean install as this will be street driven regularly.

Thanks, Walt

Long kit, Select GT reinforcement kit, Reinforced suspension ear, and your pretty much set.

This will be a street car w/ occasional track days on street tires?

Just a street car, no track days, once or twice a year street night @ drags.
