I have one on my stock frontend '57 with a bigblock, no issues turning the
old G60 -15 bias ply tires. It used to get a sway/shimmy, but the
stabablizer reduced it tremdously.
In act a few years ago I put a large unit on my Dads '69 Pete w/power
steering...he didn't know how he'd gotten along for so long with out it.
As for fit, you'll probably have to determine that yourself.
