Madman I plan on purchasing a set of your SYA bars but I cant afford much else I just got out of the army after 8 years and am a full time student now. Im looking at getting the wolfe limiters because they look good are priced well. Btw the fuel tank is a 98 sumped steel unit you made for me about 4 years back Love it. If you feel like offering any advice I'm all ears but I cant spend too much honestly. There is sponsorship room on the ride though ;-)

IMHO, save up some money and get the correct shocks on the car...
listen to madman when it comes to the suspension...he definately won't steer you wrong

a 28" slick comes out to 87.92" so the other is 88.57"
3 revolutions of the rear wheels puts it 21.98 feet from the line with the small tire, 22.14 for the big.
9 revolutions is 65.94 feet on the small, 66.42 for the big. so by the 65 foot mark the larger of the two tires is 6 inches in front of the smaller, all within the first 1.4 seconds of the pass.
