It wont drag, but it might slap the underbody.

The clearance from 'Pumpkin' to floor board will be one issue.( center the wheels w/
adjustable LCA's) and do some B.F.H. modding to the floorboard. The clearance
and LCA angle are the only factors.

Been busy with school, I took some Saturday courses so that tied up any hope of going to the track for the past year.....I'm feeling the same as you, I lowered the front a couple days ago with Hotchkis springs, and doing the rear next week while i'm on break....Planning on going with some CCW wheels in the spring if funds allow

Whats the new 700rwhp setup? Sounds crazy.....Turbo? but I haven't seen you in the FI forums...so whats the setup?
