Default Texas Speed C5 Race Car questions

I'd like to know more about Texas Speed's C5 race car. In particular, I was wondering about "What rear end is in the car?" and "What suspension set-up does it have?" I'm guessing it's not stock. Undercarriage pictures would be great too. Thank You.

The car is setup with a 4-link rear suspension and a 9" rearend from Moser. I don't currently have any undercarriage pics at the moment. I will try to snap some next time we have it on a lift.

What is done with the rear-mounted transmission?

Is it a tube-chassis car with a custom-made floor and the trans right behind the engine?

The car is back-halved with a custom floor after the seats. The transmission is a powerglide that has been moved up front behind the motor. It still has the factory frame rails in the car up front.
