Newbie Stock questions

[MLP]

Hello all,

I've been around some stockers years ago but haven't been recently so I have some basic questions please for a new project I'm embarking on.

1. Can you replace both front and rear brakes with after market discs?

2. Can you use multi disc , adjustable plate clutches in stock?

3. Can you replace the iron rocker shaft stands on a Hemi with aluminum ones?

4. Does the rear end width need to be as it was from the factory?

5. Is the Strange S60 legal for Mopars using a Dana?

6. Can you use a Meziere (sp?) water pump in stock?

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated so thank you in advance. I'm sure I'll have more later

Looks good to me.
If you can add up the $$ for the stuff that you just mentioned and you realize that those parts are just appetizers for the stock class, you are on the right path.

I had a buddy ask about buying a race car from me once. I told him to get a stack of $100 bills and start flushing them down the toilet. I told him if he couldn't count to at least twenty as he flushed them one at a time, don't bother. He never brought it up again.

Hehe, yeah...I understand what they cost to build, was really just wondering what's legal and what's not.

Thanks a lot James, I appreciate it!

That's very good news as I already own these parts and won't have to find/buy them again. The S60 is just a bare housing and tubes, so I'll make it "close" The stands are a non issue, I just had the aluminum MP stands laying around but will pick up some iron oldies.
