Saturday the 15th is the day. The car is totally ripped down right now. I had to have rocker shims overnighted to me so I can hopefully determine pushrod length and have them sent to me by the end of the week.

I didnt know you went pedistal mount on those new heads.
As far as the goal, with the MPH I saw from you last time I would have to say mid 11s.
Keep us posted after you go, Im very interested to see what that thing will do N/A.

I dont think I would go any bigger as tailpipe rub and fender scruff was already an issue but has since been taken care of.

Nice pic's!!! What type of camera are you using??

I am going to get some spacers for one of my cars this winter and see how they work out. I know you have 3/8" and I was going to try 1/2"....what fender rubbing issues were you having and how did you take care of it?

Saleen kinda rolls the fender lips already but it's not like they are cut off like one guy I know did. I just don't want to go out too far, but I want to go out as far as I can. I know its only 1/8" difference but do you think you would have issues if you ran a 1/2" instead of 3/8"?

Thanks,Tom.
