As i am planning on ordering some parts from Classic Perform i have a few questions concerning the parts.

What size brake booster should i go for? I am thinking about clearance for the motor etc. It will be a 350 smallblock.

I was planning on buying the brake kit with 2" drop spindles and the mini subframe with 1-1½" inch lowering springs. Will i be able to run a 7x17 wheel on the front with this combination? I know there are some issues with the drop spindles such as a max backspacing. Will these parts go together or should i aim for something else if i want it to go that low? And by the way how low will it be if it is lowered 3-3½" does anyone have pictures of a 66-67 nova lowered that much in the front?

I'm not sure about how much you can lower your 2nd gen Nova and still get those size wheels to fit. Concerning the power barke booster, I bought a dual 8" brake booster and its fits my 1st gen Nova nicely. Leaves plenty of room around the engines for tall valve covers, etc.

Hopefully someone else here can help with the lowering question.

Thanks a lot for the reply on the brake booster. I was aiming for the 8" so then i will go for that one unless somebody has anything bad to say about that.

Hope that someone can help on the rest of the questions?

I'm not sure if that wheel size will fit with the drop spindles. The drop springs won't be a problem.
