Thanks guys. I wanted a short tire to help the gear ratio at the track. They are 8.0/27x15's, but they are actually only 26.5 tall and measure almost a full 9 inches across the tread. Should be plenty of tire for my combo. Ryan, those are 4 degree shims I used to drop the pinion angle with the super stock springs. Yeah I can't wait for the first burnout, but it is still below zero here, so that will have to wait a few months. 0/
It might be cold here Dave, but the roads are clear . Come on , back her out into the street and light em up ;D. The neighbours are probably expecting it . And yep , I agree it lookin sweet ! Gonna get up there in a couple of weeks and have a look and listen to her.
Brakes and steering still aren't hooked up Dave. That would make for ONE interesting burnout : It should look good at Cayuga, with 2 stock looking cuda's with steelies (and big blocks under the hood) in the 12's. I am looking forward to the heads up run 0/
Me too ! Not so sure about the 12's for me though. Not with this motor, maybe, but not sure. First thing I have to do in the spring is figure out if I have a cracked cyl head ? All that steam is coming from somewhere........... If so , then what do I do ? Put the stock 906's on , which will be a pain in the arse to do . Probably be easier to just change motors. o[ doh I am very stressed over this problem at the moment... :'(
Don't stress too much Dave, it still could be a head gasket or something simple. I do know what you mean about not wanting to take the heads off. I only have to replace the header gaskets, and I'm not looking forward to it.
