It should look the same but ride better.

A 6" rear drop is about max regardless of the method. Beyond that amount starts requiring more severe mods if one wants to maintain the best ride quality possible.

Nice ride.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
