For street use, very strongly recommend larger diameter rear bushings. Study mid-size GM arrangements, B-body Chevelle, Monte Carlo, Cutlass. Love the splayed 4-link.
Billy Shope is one of the original Chrysler Corporation Ramchargers engineers, you might enjoy his musings on suspension geometry, I know I did....

Billy had a hand in designing and building "The High and the Mighty" C/Altered '49 Plymouth business coupe that NTFDAY (Ken) linked for you in post #6. The car originally ran a 354 early hemi with 3-speed manual transmission. It's my favorite drag car of all time....

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
