In Car Video T56 Magnum Small Block Stroker

[340sFastback]

Car: 69 Barracuda 414 small block stroker, T56 Magnum close ratio 6 speed trans, Dana 60 373 gears. You can see how easy car lost traction when I hit second. Also note cruising around 45-50 mph on country road in 5'th gear.

What size tires do you run?

I thought losing traction hitting 2nd was desirable lol.

Those TA’s could be 12” wide and would still be spinning in second gear behind that stroker.
Nice car.

True that. But they do a lot better in summer when the sun heats the roads up. It was cloudy around 50 degrees day of video. Roads were on the cold side so I don't step on it much in the cooler temps.

@340sFastback those are small! I figured you’d have wider tires. I was thinking of a 275 or even the need for 295s on mine, but maybe I can get away with just the 275s

@340sFastback those are small!

Thats what she said.....I picked the tire sized based on looks not function was going for a sleeper look. In the warmer weather when roads are hot I can step on it quite a bit more. But more tire back there yeah it can definitely use it.

I only have the US Car Tool sub frame connectors installed, no torque boxes yet, so I think torque boxes and the rest of the US Car Tool Level 2 kit I have laying in boxes really needs to go on before I do anything else tire wise....
