HA HA I don’t have anything better to do. I’m good at cutting things up 🙂

Thanks Brian. I’m currently running a 30" X 10" tire. I’ll be able to run at least a 29.5W or 30W. Maybe wider depending on if I relocate the LCA or not. I’m really looking to lower the car.

Yes I’ve had a Wolfe anti roll bar for awhile now.

I don’t know if I posted this or not but my tranny and converter went south. Thats why my car slowed down so much the last 3 trips to the track. It got slower each trip until it slowed to a 10.51 at 127. thats when I put it on the trailer, took it home and tore it down.

My transmision has been togther for 6 years now. On it’s 32 pass the planetary came apart, sent it back and they redid it with a better gearset. I tore it down myself 2 years ago everything still looked ok. Well today i sent it back to JW transmissions to have it freshened, I’m not goin to take a chance any longer. What trans are you running? Who built it?

Oh ya the motor is being freshened also. Besides my tranny going south I also had poor leakdown results. They found 5 questionable intake valves.

So I should be in good shape for 2 years after all this work.
