    Came across MILLERS mav and it had struts on the front, is there any advantage to this? Also if there is what would be the parts needed to do the conversion?:thanks Frank:thumbs2:

    Do you have picture link of what you saw?
    Most of what I have seen with struts, is a swap to a Mustang II front end. Very invasive project that will totally replace everything forward of the firewall. Advantage is, it gets rid of the springs and shock towers which leaves tons of room for even the biggest of engines.
