I have a 66 GTO that I want to put a 6speed and a LS motor in it, Anyone got one for sale? How about any suggestions for making the car handle halfway decent, so I could autocross it and take it on the track?
I see there are all sort of aftermarket tubular A-Arms for the car, but some options are waaaay too pricey. Not really sure how to tell one part from the other.

And most of the tubular A-arms out there, to be strong enough to hold up to roadracing, are usually as heavy as the factory stamped steel items. I'd be looking at Del-A-Lum bushings for the front, spherical rod ends for the upper and lower rear control arms and panhard bar, and then a close look at your shock and spring options. Global west probably has about the most pre-made suspension parts for that car:

Otherwise, you may want to peruse the Lefthander Chassis and Speedway Motors websites for parts for things you'll have to fab up to achieve your goals.

Sounds like a fun project.
