    yes i plan on getting ET streets... 235 60 15....

    im sure it will make my ET faster,, my MPH will suffer..
    reason.. i will run out of engine before the finish line.. according to the amount of RPMS i will have at the finish.. and my valves start floating right around the 5300 mark.. i will be at 5400 rpm at the finish..

    so we shall see



    until i get the new springs and tires... then it will be a rocket

    Do you have the front 5-lug spindles also?

    Yes, I have everything from the spindles out. I took them off my car to go disc brakes. My understanding was that they were pretty fresh when I bought the car, so they should still be in good shape. I also have a line on a disc brake setup if anyone is interested. But I'd have to check to see if the guy still has that. Oh and one last thing you might be interested in Gene, I have a pair of 14" drag radials that won't work with my new setup. They are already mounted on Ford steel rims. Anyhow, drop me a pm if there is anything you need I'm always trying to help out a fellow racer. And it makes it a lot easier since you're local.
