    How much will 20's slow me down?

    O.k., this is what I found out using the tire calculator: going from stock to a 20" wheel with 275/35/20 tires, the overall diameter would increase by .4 inches, sidewall height would drop from 5.08" to 3.78", and revs. per mile would decrease by 11.1.

    exhaust pipe size

    Stock GT bumpers should be available cheap also: check new takeoff parts website, brenspeed, and others. Anyone that has put a body kit on has to get rid of the stocker, or you could go with a body kit yourself.

    How much will 20's slow me down?

    I f I were to go from 17" wheels, stock tire size to 20's, how much slower would the car be in the 1/4 mile?

    Mustang Ricer... HA!

    Looks like the car has a turd stuck to its butt; if he rocks the car back and forth, it will fall off...works when it happens to me anyway.

    My mechanic said: just deal with it (brakes)

    I'd say it is a faulty ABS problem. Try to test it on a smooth road where no road irregularities could activate the system Be aware that if the tires start to lock up, it will engage anyway. If it is the abs, get it replcaed under warranty or your probably looking at well over a grand to fix...

    Gas Tank Draining?

    I think moisture in the tank is bull****; I have a 67 that sits for years at a time during its restomod and it never fails to start. The last time I put fuel in it was before I got married and today is my 11th. Anniversary.

    New member-first time to track-what a blast-now what?

    Check around,smaller tracks don't usually have such strict rules. Being a 'vert though could be a problem. If u get a rollbar, you could paint it body color to improve the look.

    driveshaft

    People that like the adaptor usually do it theirself in the driveway to save money, but some believe it is a bad idea due to the strength and another possible spot for vibration. Axle Exchange is the only alumin shaft I haven't heard people complain about.

    Opening door in winter

    Mine freeze from sleet/freezing rain. When I open the door you can see the window bending to clear the weatherstripping. Like I said...years down the road, this will probably be an expensive fix.
