This will be a learning experience that's for sure. I plan on throwing a lot of parts at this thing really quick. I want to have it done by March for MATS. Paint and body can come later.
Roller block you're using right? If your not limited in tire size, run as big of a rear kick as you fit, same with the front. You're switching over to a manual tranny correct? Disc brake upgrade will be a must, depending on the level rear as well.
You can run up to a 16x10 wheel before a weight penality. Most guys run a 12" wheel in the rear. As you can see my rear fenders have been flaired a little already and I will do mini tubs, but I don't think I can move the frame rails. Most of the time you are in second gear and there is a rolling start before you trip the timing beam, so I am running parts that I have right now, 904 with cheetah valve body, stock converter for engine braking and 3.89 gear with Detroit locker. The 4 speed will come later. I'm not going roller, just a flat solid lifter for now. Justin is having a custom grind built for my combo and altitude. I need grunt down low for coming out of a corner and good midrange.
The brakes will be 4 wheel disc with a wilwood master. On the front for the time being I am going to 11.75 Cordoba drilled and slotted rotors with Wilwood Dynalite calipers. The rear is a 9" with disc brakes. There will be improvements that I will make down the road to everything, but this is what I have on hand right now.
