What type of rear end do you run? Whats involved with that swap? I imagine its quite a bit of welding. I was considering it but I dont want to get into anything too crazy. + my buddy's TT Viper still has IRS and Id really like to F him up with an IRS car. Putting shame to blown IRS cobras and TT Supras would be an added bonus of such a setup.

Also, What type of tranny is in your ZR1? Even if I keep the IRS Id like to put a Jerico 4spd W/ a gear vendor ( cause I have a new one just sittin here) in the car but I haven't seen anyone come up with a good alternative to the C-beam. I was thinking I could maybe fab some kinda mount but it might be easier to just design a new C beam replacement that bolts up easy.

I read that some of the older C4s came from the factory with a 4 spd tranny + an OD unit behind it. Does anyone know where the C beam connects on the tranny side in one of those older applications? I was thinking it might be possible to do the DR4 + GV OD by emulating that factory setup, depending on the mounting location.
