    Want a 4-Point Harness without a cage?

    This is cool. On a similar note, anyone ever create a 4 point harness kit for the back seat? To my surprise I'm not finding much for adding a shoulder belt to the back seat, so a harness would be the next step.

    Upgrade from Dual ATR 2.5"?

    Sounds like the consensus is that I won't gain much from changing exhaust at my current power level and 3" downpipe. I will say the 2.5" ATR has a great mellow tone while cruising around. I might experiment with a 3" muffler directly off of the downpipe and have it come out under the passenger...

    Upgrade from Dual ATR 2.5"?

    These are some good replies. Thanks. I have lots of PL data through the exhaust and just one pull with tire spin on the 2-3 shift with cutout open from yesterday. Wow was it loud with the windows down. Best ET 10.70 @ 126. As mentioned primary goal is quicker spool up. Those pesky Hellcats (if...

    Upgrade from Dual ATR 2.5"?

    Is there anything to be gained in going from the dual 2.5" ATR to the dual 3" GN1 exhaust with the my following combo? Stroker 109, 6265 turbo, 3" ATR external gate downpipe, and cutout/test pipe? I know the total area of the dual 2.5" is larger than the 3" downpipe, so quick math says no, but...

    80 lb injectors and E85

    These guys know what they're talking about. Here's my data point: 80lb injectors, -8 feed, -6 return, Walbro 415/430 pump, hotwire kit, base FP bumped up slightly, stroker motor, 21 psi, 6265 turbo. Best ET 10.70 @ 126. Duty cycle jumped to 120% right at the traps. On the street it doesn't go...

    Backspacing question

    I'll echo replies here. 275/60 on 15x8 w/ 4" BS is 1/2" from frame rail on each side on my car. Going with 7/8" more BS but only a 1/2" wider wheel I bet would rub when cornering. Small spacer and extended lugs might get you there. For other reference I looked at a few other club cars last...

    E85 from Kwik Trip?

    Cool thanks.

    E85 from Kwik Trip?

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely understand testing and getting good fuel, which I know I can get from a Holiday another 5 miles away. I've never had it test below 83 during the summer months and have been going there for almost a decade. I was more curious about if KT's website is...

    E85 from Kwik Trip?

    Anyone ever use or test E85 from a Kwik Trip station in the Midwest? I went on their website and found that specific stations list what fuels they have and what the price is. E85 also has a listed blend of E70, but I'm wondering if that's accurate or kept up to date. I did contact them and await...

    AFR with E85

    I agree with you and if there was a station that had e70 always I'd run that and be done. Have some fun shows and cruises coming up, so won't be taking anything apart in the next couple months.

    275/60 on 15x8 fitment

    Nice looking setup.

    275/60 on 15x8 fitment

    Yea, when you're trying to fit stuff to the 1/4 inch on these cars it gets tricky. The hope was that I could get a 15x8 with 4.5" backspacing (like Welds) and with the extra .5" BS I could use a thin spacer if needed and bring it in a little more and be able to tuck the 275 and not hit the...

    295/55/15 without rolled fender lips or frame notch???

    TurboTGuy, very nice and thanks for adding size details with pics. I assume you're also within a .25-.5 inch of touching the frame rail if no frame notch?

    295/55/15 without rolled fender lips or frame notch???

    Searching through old threads and photos on my PC I came across a pic I had saved. I believe this is toomanymodz car which was originally posted here. 15x9 rear with 4.5" backspacing. 295/55 tires. One of my favorites.

    275/60 on 15x8 fitment

    I think the picture is a little deceiving because I can fit my hand in front of the tire and the rear and top of the arch follows the contour of the tire nicely. The lower control arms are not adjustable and are UMI along with the drop brackets. Going from memory, but I believe we put the pinion...

    275/60 on 15x8 fitment

    Thanks for joining the conversation. The wheels are Eagle Alloys 111's and specs show the 15x8 has a -12 mm offset. Online calculators show that as 4" backspacing. I've seen old links from Summit list 3.966" as well. In a 275/60 the MT ET Street SS is listed as having a section width of 11.1"...

    275/60 on 15x8 fitment

    Thought I'd post some pics and info since many of the old images on this site are lost. To start my body and rear end are as close to centered as I could get them. Nothing fancy, just did body bushings a decade ago and have dropped lower control arms with adjustable uppers. The wheels are 15x8"...

    225/70r15 on front 15x7

    Yup, I had the 255's on stock wheels previously. That's the best you can do with a 7" wide wheel. I'm honestly wondering if a 255 would have the same contact patch width on a 8" vs the 275. I'll make a separate post for that. In regards to front tires I think the sweet spot for me is the...

    AFR with E85

    Is pulling the plugs only valid after a pass at the track and shutting the car off on the return road, like it has to be read very shortly after being under load? I assume making pulls on the highway, driving home, and removing them wouldn't show much.
