    Tim - If all goes well I am planning a trip to Piedmont Raceway on March 16th for T-N-T. We'll see how goes. Traction was never a problem with the 302 but it will be a problem now. I'm going to stick with the street tires until I get a cage and a hardened input shaft in the transmission. 60" times may not be the best but I'll be able to drop the hammer after getting it rolling and not have to worry too much about tearing up a bunch of stuff.

    The springs are what was on the Mustang II. Don't know what they are but the as it sat in the picture it has 1/2 coil removed. I have removed another 1/4 coil.
