Tire size

[AdamR]

Im currently running 28X10.5-15s on the back of my car but I'm wondering if I should go with a 26" tall tire to pick up a little gear ratio?

030" 340
9.6:1 compression
Magnum heads unported
XE274H 230/236 .513"/.523" with 1.6 rocker 110lsa
650 double pumper
LD340 intake 1" tapered spacer.
1-5/8" headers 3" exhaust

727 10" converter
3.91s suregrip

3300 lbs with driver.

What do you think. I havent had the car to the track yet so I dont know what its going to run.

I haven't had mine to the track yet either, but i'll be running 3.91s with 26" Drag Radials

just in research and after running my 68 mustang with 3.55s and 26" tires, i think i'll go with 3.91 and 26" for the cuda

.............and the mustang will be upgraded to a 3.89 this year

 

[AdamR]

your running a 275-50 right ? Im running a 325-50, was thinking of going with a 295-50

 

[THEWHITEZOMBIE]

Why dont u jsut run more gear out back likt 4.10-4.30?

 

[AdamR]

Becuase its cheaper to switch tires then to pull the rear a part and add a new ring and pinion, plus bearings and set-up fees.

 

[THEWHITEZOMBIE]

Oh so your gonna losse the meats?so when can i expect them at my house for the Zombie :twisted: :thumrigh:

 

[THEWHITEZOMBIE]

Theyll go great with my spool an 4.56's

 

[AdamR]

I'll be keeping them for back ups.

 

[THEWHITEZOMBIE]

Oh how cute :tongue: dont worry i was killing chevys with a 7-1/4 an 2.73's an a peg leg,when the relo kit is in an mini tubed the 8 3/4 is goin under :thumleft:

 

[Mopower71]

Try it with the 28x10.5's you might like it. Especially if it's going to be a STREET CAR :jocolor:

 

[AdamR]

The only thing I was killing with the peg leg was the right side tire.

 

[THEWHITEZOMBIE]

Peg legs are the best,it was so fun racing an that right tire was smokin the hole time,MMAN GOOD TIMES

 

[klrfish1968]

One thing about a one legger... it'll always go straight. I know several people that have them in 8 and 9 second dragsters...
