#1 I personally will not own a car with a auto i really hate big converter cars so gutless in high gear, unless i was an all out bracket racer rowing a 4speed is a lost artform not many people out there run them anymore exspecially a young 25yr old like me.
#2 We are going to be purchaseing a potent stroker its going to be around 550-600HP and 550tq stutter box and linelock.

#3 Is this thing going to be impossible to make hookup without a ton of $? #4 We will run the widest slick we can get in the stock wheel wells. #5 What would be a good starting point for rear suspension for a full interior 69 swinger.

#1 that's because you haven't wised up yet and it'll be a money pit.
#2 this is the begining of the money pit and wont work well with a 4-speed.
#3 no but it you're already worried about money fagedaboutit.
#4 the widest slick should be around 8"x27"
#5 ladder bars with spring sliders on your stock springs and good adjustable
shocks. cost about $500+ or -

this is pretty much the way it will unfold, you will rip the u-joints out which will tear off the tail shaft of your 4-speed. :oops:you'll fix and/or upgrade that broken stuff. next you will rip all or most of the teeth off the ring and pinion.:oops: you will upgrade/fix those broken parts to a pro gear,spool and back brace the 8 3/4 rear. that should hold you for awhile. next the clutch linkage and shift rods will bend and you will fix that. :oops:now that you have the money pit well in hand the 4-speed sincros(my bad)will break and you will have to have the trans slick shifted.:oops: this is if you didn't screw the clutch up already and have to replace it with a high end one. :oops:oh by now you have figured out how to hook the hotrod up and then the 8 3/4" blows up again and you go to a dana.:oops:
see where am i headed with this, if not please refer back to. #1:banghead:
