    :Welcome: from Northeast Pennsylvania

    My shock towers are completely gone but my car is also caged to take the place of everything missing. Others here have installed the Rod & Custom Mustang II type suspension under their cars and was able to remove just the spring area :)

    You can use the "search" feature and look into information on just shaving back your towers - owners use that method to gain extra space when swapping in a 351 W or C :)
