Hey Woodrow,
Remember the thread a couple weeks ago about the Checker Auto Co. ? ( Previously the Checker Cab co. )
Well, some might not love hearing this, what with ego's and all. lol
But the Checker Auto Co. manufactored almost all of the Camero and Firebird subframes and suspension for GM from the 80's to probably this day.
I did some work with the factory just before they quite building Checker cars, they had a front end problem.
I just picked up the phone and called the factory from the shop I was working in. They were really nice. They had a front end problem and we helped work it out. Thats where I got to know some of the old Checker guys, and the history of the car.

They're based in Michigan, shouldn't be hard to find a phone #.
I bet you could call them and they would tell you everything you wanted to know. That way you have it right from the horses mouth.

So...YES, you guys are racing CHECKER CAB's [:-laughing-:]
Sorry woody
