What kind of suspension and bracing do you/will you have?

The radiator and intercooler will go behind the front seats in front of the rear fenders. I'm going to use a 3 row aluminum radiator, and 4'' thick intercooler so the dimensions don't have to be to large.

I'll move the motor and tranny up as far as I can enough to retain a good angle on the CV's and still have the stock wheelbase.

The rear suspension will be a multi-link double wishbone setup from a 993. I'm going to tie everything into the 14 point cage, including hanging the rear suspension assembly. Mid engine would be nice but I couldn't use the 993 setup.
