Fresh V-8 build, wanting advise
So as the title suggests, I procured a FC with most of the swap done. I am trying to figure out what I can do on a budget to help make it a DD/ fun cruiser.
Basic info:
350 Vortec (96+) W/ HEI ignition
High rise intake
650 Holley Double Pumper w/ mechanical secondary
T-5 Trans
Stock 4.10 rear end
It was to good of a vehicle to just turn away from when I bought it. Body is in great shape.
The rear end is my concern. But I don't know a lot about them. Would like to keep my IRS if all possible.

It largely depends on what type of FC you managed to get. You'd be fine with the tii rear but not so much the n/a. You can purchase the parts to swap them if needs be but then you'll need a different flange for the driveshaft. You can all purchase an 8.8 IRS out of a ford (cobra or exploder, be VERY careful purchasing an exploder diff, they tend to be poorly manufactured) and some mounts and swap that over.
