1963 - 1979 Vette four link install.

Mike, it will need to run 5.90's - 6.0's in the 1/8th at around 2900 pounds with driver. Thus, around 725 horsepower. The tire size is not so much an issue as the rear assembly strength at that performance. I think a 30 x 12 tire would be plenty. And remember this is a manual trans deal.

I realize this post is all over the place, but I have found 1975 Vette 10 miles from my shop that will check out tomorrow.

Someone mentioned cutting the rear floor out of the body. Have you seen that done?
