My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

???? Thought you were happy with the 295s in the stock wheel wells. Are we planning something a little more radical?

I don't think I'm going to go bigger than 295. But I do still have about 1" of rake on the car, I'd like to lower the rear a bit more and I'm all out of room to that bump in the outer wheelhouse. So I'm going to do kind of a reverse mini-tub, make that outer wall of the tub vertical and smooth out that bump, tie it into the quarter lip so the lip is only a 1/4" wide or so. Should give me plenty of room to lower it, and I should be able to add rear disks too without worrying about the added 5/16" causing issues with tires rubbing.

That's the plan anyway.
