Paging JSears8. Hey JSears8,
I was just looking at the pictures you posted today in an earlier thread, that's a sweeet looking machine. I am getting a set of those Y2K Vette wheels for my 99T/A and want to know who's tires you have on there and what size they are front and back. Thanks,
Mark

Re: Paging JSears8. Thanks Mark. They are 17x8.5 wheels front and rear. Main reason I didn't get the 18s was that Nitto didn't have their Drag Radial out yet. The tires on the front are Yokohama 275/40/17 A520 and the rear are 275/40/17 Nitto Drag Radials. The nittos fit nicely on the 8.5" wheels as they seem to be a bit narrower then other 275/40s, but the front A520s bulge out a little, not much though. I'll see if I can get a good pic to show you.

Re: Paging JSears8. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> Thanks Justin,
The wheels I'm getting are 18"X 9.5". I'm alittle concerned with the wheel well fit but I have HAL shocks FRT/BK so I shouldn't have a problem, probably have to go with low profiles.
Your times are great, my car goes to Fastech this week for the same heads/cam set up that you have. So I hope to get close to the same numbers, I'll post the dyno #'s when It's done.

Re: Paging JSears8. Hi Mark I am interested in the dyno numbers myself cause I am going with a similiar set up maybe this summer and I would like to get close to 400 rwhp... but with a slightly bigger cam(possibly) depending on how my street manners will look....... Holla back at me when you get the numbers!!
Justin I was wondering if you will be going to track any time soon and if ya do shoot me an email... I prolly bring my dad this time..... he has never seen an LS1 car go down the track and I would love for him to see you or Jason go down!!!

Re: Paging JSears8. Josh,
I am putting a LS6 intake manifold and BBK 80MM TB on at the same time. I'm hoping for at least 425 RWHP and about the same torque. I will post the dyno's when it's done next week.
