I would say width depends on several factors. The biggest ones are what size wheel and tire package do you plan on running. Also what backspace does your wheels have. Best thing to do is buy your wheel tire package, then jack the car up w/out the housing in it. Sit the wheels and tires up in the wheel wells exactly how you want them to sit and then measure the width. That way you will be able to cusomize the housing to fit exactly the way you need it.

The '67-'68 rear end width is the same as a fox body. Just stick some good axles and 5-lug disks in an 8.8 and you are good to go! Thats what I did.
