Hi JC, my Classic Revival has quite a few Commodore bits in it, but the chassis was made for this, i.e. VE Diff and lower suspension arms, VZ hubs, LS1 with T56, all just bolted in. No idea on the RMC or G-Force with regards to donor vehicle bolt-ons.

One of the guys over there (Plums I think) used the whole Commodore wiring loom (maybe even including the instrument cluster as well I think), which is a good idea. With this option you can then use the body computers etc and maybe put in ABS etc.

Good hunting
