My current car is running a stroker windsor that should make at least 550hp with a 5 speed and 4:11 gears. I'm running frame connectors and a 8 point rollbar. Hopefully this will keep the car from flexing when I run it at the track on slicks.

A big +1.
It doesn't take long to twist these cars up without subframe connectors. Mine still twists (no cage yet) at the track with a 2500rpm, drag radial spinning 1.80 60' launch. Not badly, but it definitely twists. The 10pt cage should be going in shortly.
I know guys who run for years launching hard on slicks with no subframes...but the cars are permanently ruined for any trueness. Not something I think you want to do with your classic =D.
