dear friends

need some help in one of my projects, it is 1973 mustang that we are swapping gt500 5.8l engine, the complete work will be done with the best parts, i know lots of guys dislike this model.

i need to know what is the max wheel size with the correct back space ? the car will be mini tubed and will have four link or three link suspension kit, the wheels front and back size 18" not less do to the six caliper bear brake system on all four corners.

please advice and if any did the same please post some pic and info.

the hard thing is that i am over seas and getting all the parts once will help in shipping cost, we could do all and keep the wheel size at the last to have measurements but time and shipping makes a big difference.

your help mostly appreciated

thanks

Welcome to Stangnet.

I'll move your thread to the Classic subforum, you'll get some help there.

My first Mustang back in 1978 was a '72 mustang, so I like the body style a lot.

Sounds ambitious and cool what you have planned. I can't wait to see the progress.

Good to have you with us.
