With a long box, if you are not setting the engine back ALOT, the drive shaft length would be a concern for me.

My shortbox has the engine as far back as possible with no firewall mod, and the DS is 53.5" center to center of ujoint.

If you are welding the engine's frame mounts, BUY your headers before you weld the mounts. Hedman headers are about the only racing option out of the box unless going forward facing.
