then in went a 396 from a old Nova
with that a backhalf was in order
he was set with that until.....
he wanted a 572 dart
room was needed, so was a new firewall
then the inside of the truck needed done
he had the idea of a "street" truck so he got some tires for when he rolls the street lol
he still has the slicks for the track tho

as far as the wheels being too far forward he might have done it to help hook, but you would fix it by moving the 4 ling back, or you could put longer bars on the 4 link, just make sure all the measurements are right.

well, talked to him over the Thanksgiving break....
The truck is at a speed shop down here gettin looked over for safty and street legal (even tho it has tags and a inspection sticker lol)
The guy goin over it has a 8 sec Transam and seems to b pretty knowledgable.
when he gets it back... time to take apart and paint and powdercoat and chrome things....
