Default solid axle rear in a vette?

i'm wondering if anyone makes a solid rear end that will bolt right in place of the rear end.i'm looking to build a c-4 into a outlaw drag radial car and i must use stock suspension mounts to run in the class.
thanks
tony

No one replyed to you because you are going to ruin a vette. No one will want to buy a vette that is all custom, it is not worth anything =/, but have fun.

please tell me how i'm ****ing up a vette.for the outlaw drag radial racing i'll be doing i have to keep all the interior.the out side of the body still has to look like it did from the factory,all the lights will be working and it will be still street legal.its not like i'm chopping the hell out of it.sorry but i'm not dumb and i know that the rear end of the car will not take 1500hp.i need to be able to bolt a solid axle rear in the car that will take this kind of power.really i'm restoring the vettte since i got to go threw the whole thing,the rear end will be bolt in and the org rear would be able to bolt right back in.so please dont come at me with your holly then now b.s...tell this day i have yet to see a stock suspension vette run low 8s and i'm planning on running high 7s on radials.

NHRA rules say that he needs a solid axle to do what he wants and I really don't think he could care less about killing the value of an old ragged out, ready to be put out to pasture, corvette, lol. It's funny, he was recommended to this site by a few different people on other sites when he was looking for help, and then he reported back the warm welcome he received. Way to go.......

I'd just like to say that drag racing is very respectable. I personally love seeing vettes and other GM cars on the strip. It beats the heck out of the current import trend (NOPI). Ghost, you do what ever it takes to make YOUR car fast, safe, and regulation ready. More power to ya!

Agreed, I too love to see tricked out 1/4 mile drag cars that are quick.
I also believe that if you want to modify your car then you can, it is ultimately your car. you can do what you want to it.
Ghost 727 can you post pictures of your vette when it is finished?

good luck in building a bad a$$ vette for the strip!
