A wider wheel base will essentially work like lowering your center of gravity. The lower the center of gravity, the less body roll you will have which will in turn keep all the tires planted better for more traction. Griggs seems to be the best at making killer handling components for our Mustangs so I'd check out what they have to offer in the GR350 package.

I had a 65 and a 66 Mustang when I was in high school and driving those cars is a total blast. If I could find a 65-68 to build for a corner carver I would definately do it. They just feel like they are lighter than the newer Mustangs. Kind of like an overgrown go-cart.

I say go for it. Then when you get it done come by and give me a ride in it
