I am in the process of parting out an 89 iroc z/28 for my 54 gmc truck .I have the tpi 350 motor /700r4 trans, I am in the process of installing the disc brake rear this weekend. I had a crazy thought of installing the removeable cradle frt end. How cool would that be? Anybody tryed this yet??

You will find that the suspension will not work. The '89 Camaro used a modified strut suspension up front. There is no upper control arm. You would have to use pretty much the entire front body clip to allow for the upper strut tower mounting and to keep proper suspension geometry alignemnt. best would be to use either an '81 or earlier F body sub or an aftermarket crossmember.
