Unless you get the 12 bolt stuff cheep money might be better on other go fast parts. Way back in the day Rick Johnson ran a 12 bolt in his hemi car. Tom

Hey Tom. Good to hear from you! Primary reason would be weight, if any performance it would be gravy. While I have no prob with the 14.00 break in GT class. I can't get light enough for the 13.50 break GT class. I had forgotten Rick had one in is hemi. I do need to call you soon and discuss something though.
