Those wheels have been a mixed bag regarding which lug to use. If they are new in box, check the lit with them. If not, snap a picture of the lug area and call cragar. Having the right and left deal might pose an issue as well.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it. JB Rhinehart, Realist A-Body's RULE!

Until you have the car and can verify wheel stud bolt circle and diameter you will be guessing. Remember, stock is has 10 left hand thread studs and 10 right hand thread studs and finding proper LHT nuts can be tough. IIRC, stock is has 7/16 studs.

So later brakes are not in the equation. Just a guess, the wheels won't likely require that uni-lug nonsense other wheels have as they are drilled single pattern. Someone on another site just had issues with the suggested lug and what was actually needed on a cragar wheel purchase. There are a couple different series of these S/S wheels in production.

He doesn't have the car, until he does and can verify no one's been playing with the brakes, who knows? Too many people will put the stock brakes off a 74 A body onto a 68 A body and still think it's "stock". Trust but verify, lol.

Correct. Unless if someone has changed the left side of the car to right hand studs sometime in the past.
