Man, that would be illegal here, especially after what happened here in Nova Scotia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Nova_Scotia_attacks. In fact, the RCMP has stopped selling their old PCs to the public even if they are stripped.

V6 (silver one) is now daily driver for my son.
It really runs well, the V6 is no slouch at 300 hp. Rides like a Caddy :D
Had mine to the track - went 11.77, but differential axle seal let go only letting me make one pass.
(LOTS of smoke - rear end grease directly on hot exhaust)

Noice! 1👊 A video from the track would be cool too! Here's an easy way to share it here, if you have a Google account (Gmail, YouTube, etc). https://support.google.com/drive/answer ... %3DDesktop

Hey Barry, what was the width on the rims you widened? I acquired a set of 20X11 with 315/35/20's for the rear and 20X9 275/40/20's for the front from a Zl-1 track racer. Was planning on using on a different project and they are just to big. I ran the tire calculator for yours and mine and came up with this:


315/35/20 28.7" H, 12.4" W
325/45/20 29.5 H, 12.8" W

You stated that your tires are 30.2"

I assume that my wheels and tires will fit if the offset is correct?

What do you think?


Thanks
Mike

I have a pretty similar setup. 10” widened oem rims on 315/45. Did you do anything to deal
With the ABS not working due to the tire diameter mismatch front to rear? The warnings are pretty annoying. I couldn’t find anything programmable in the ABS module to allow a different size front to rear.

No I have not - Shortly after pulling out the garage it throws a couple fits about ABS then disables.

Congrats on a great build in your signature - you will have a lot of fun with that ride !
