Tagged the wall at 125+ MPH,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

On my screen,the pic's are side by side.The full black spoke is Champion,the outlined spokes are Billet specialties:blob1:

I like the full solid looking black spokes myself, I guess that's the Champions {the one to the right, in your post, on my scene}, they would look bad *** on a black car
 
Well,thank god winter is almost over.It's benn freeeeeeeeeeeezin in the garage:icon_rolleyes:

Started messin with the directional,got new lenses and 1 housing.
Wheels & tires came in,but the front tires are not the tire tread I wanted.
Still a few weeks before I can get in the chassis shop,once I get in,,,,,,,,,will be out a a few days!
Here'a a few pic's of the rears mounted,still waiting on replacement fronts.

So here are my imaginary wheels,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,TOOL:icon_fU:

Great choice... I likey !!! what's the deal with the front runners, not the right tire diameter ? too tall, too short or wrong width ? or just wrong style/size all together ?... just curious
 
looking good show us a pic when you get them on the car
 
What made you buy those wheels?
They look like Weld knockoffs.

M?T has several tread patterns for the E/T front. It DOES say not for hiway use.

Weld only offers backspace in 3.5,4.5,5.5,6.5 etc. I needed a 6 inch B/S,so the Champion wheels won over the Billit specialties:angel3:

Had to clearance the 4 inch tailpipes as they were hitting the shocks.While I have the exhaust out,will weld in a pair of O/2 bungs for the racepak.Car is still in the garage on jackstands so the driveshaft sensor can be installed.Then it will soon go to the chassis shop for new upper shock mounts,"J" bars,engine limiters and see about a belly pan instead of a diaper.
Still chippin away.It sucks when I get down to the garage to get some stuff done and the phone rings.Drop what I'm doin,,,,tools on the floor and jump in the towtruck for the next victim:icon_lol:

M?T has several tread patterns for the E/T front. It DOES say not for hiway use.

I noticed after I asked the question, they were like a "front runner"/drag specific tire, not a DOT treaded front tire...
 
Next will install shock tabs on the underside of the shock towers and eliminate the shock stud from the engine compartment.
Than I can use the fabricated valve covers that I personalized to my liking.:angel3:

Like the job you did with the valve covers.

Thanks,Bought all new stainless allen head bolts,Sunk the bolt holes down so the allen head is flush with the hole,installed Moroso breathers in each cover that unscrews to add oil and then polished the fabricated aluminum.The breathers go to Moroso upright puke tanks with breathers on top and a petcock on the bottom.Real happy with the way they came out and can't wait to install them!!:eek:ccasion16:

Cool pieces, are you getting allot of blow-by at boost ??, no vacuum pump or evac-exhaust nipples in the collectors, I take it, but it's a really good idea to have a puke tank anyway, especially when you pressurize the cylinders... I'll look forward to photos... Looks good
