Complete rewire, RS front grille conversion and replacement of gauges with Autometer American Muscle gauges.

Set of 17" American Racing T71r's on their way as well.

Question! Currently not rear tubbed, so (when they are fitted) the T71r's will be running about 8.5 Inches of rubber. However, I am planning on possibly procharging it next year (to the tune of around 600 BHP), am i going to have issues putting that down on the ground with only 8.5 inches on the rear tyre?

Cheers

Jonny
