The 360 Club
Thanks for the kind words, guys (Johnny, mullinax and Scamp360).
I do have matching steel (15" X 7") rear wheels, (see photo) but had the D.O.T slicks on some s.b.p. Centerlines when those pictures were taken. I don't drive it much on the street with those tires (wear rating "0"!!!) They're 8"-wide B.F. Goodrich T-A Drag Radials, and I'm not very impressed with them. Someday, I'll probably put in a rear spring relocator kit, move the springs in, mini-tub the trunk, and put some decent (10.5") rubber on it so it can launch properly with a good 3,500-stall 9" converter.
In the meantime, I'm hoping it will acquit itself decently on the street. I am hoping for about a one second improvement with the bklower, but as they say, "Talk's cheap!"
We'll see... I'll report back when I get a Chrondek time with the boost.

PS Those are '64 Valiant hubcaps out of respect to my original 340/A Body car, a '64 V-100 2-door sedan with a four-speed, '71 340 I put together in 1972. That was the only car I ever owned that I never lost a race in. Sure wish I had it back!!!! You gotta LOVE a car that never lets you down.... :)
