Mini-tubs

[olskooljr]

I've decided to go the mini-tub route. I was looking at the Detroit Speed website and saw the minitub kit for 67 camaro was $1,320. I was wondering if there are more company that have kits for a cheaper price and will the kit be the only thing I need to worry about if I want to go with a wider wheel? Any info is much appreciated

You will need to narrow your back seat and buy a new narrowed gas tank.

DSE mintubs are $399

That is just for the tubs. The kit costs 1320.

narrowed tank
mini tub shocks = lots o money
labor to install
wider wheels

do not need narrower rear, stock width will work but you will only have a 2.5 inch lip.
minimum needed to do is mini tubs
if keeping leafs you need offset shackles and narrow tank 5 inches
or do 4 link of some type and narrow fuel tank
if you do the work yourself its worth doing the 4 link, as its not that much more money and alot easier to tune.

Can you get by with a stock width tank with the Air Bar and QA1s and minitub?

i guess your right, but in my case that was the whole point of it.. the fat tires with the big lip on the rim....I just faced the facts... there was no cheap way around it.. time i did it wheels tires, mini tub kit rear end, I spent over 7 geez..
