I forgot how good it looked mini tubbed. The rears were a set of custom 15x10 rallys my buddy's dad welded up for me.

I understand the motive ,of the thread start: Now" you found turbo power,you're jinxin' for those traction capabilities...
I don't recall that we "bought" anything. We cannibalized some rims and centers and my buddy jigged them up and welded them together.
It was a wicked 340. I bought the shortblock from my machinist. He ran in an alcohol class. It had all lightweight BME internals at about 12:1. Big solid lifter cam and X heads I think. It revved like a Kawasaki Ninja I remember. Could hit 7500Rpm with a blip of the pedal. Never raced it unfortunately before selling it.
Yup! Seriously thinking mini tub on my 65. Maybe next year. And a cage.
