That's what I thought. I was talking to CAMN HAWK a while ago about cramming a 15x12 under the rear. Then I saw a thread where someone bought Rick Intrau's old 12 bolt that had been narrowed that much and talk about Worm Boy's old setup came up. What's the OD of your LCAs? If I'm reading correctly you narrowed the LCA mounts on the rear of the car also? How much? I'm guessing you guys made your mini tubs also? I have the wolfe's, but from what I've read I might need to modify them to fit a 15x12 with the rear narrowed that much.

Sorry if I'm blowing all your tricks.

It weighs in at 3280 ish depending on how much ice , water and fuel. We got the big turbo back yesterday, we will put it on this week and test friday in San antonio. Mike Murillo has rented the track to test his new outlaw car and he invited us down for some fun. Now it is time to turn it up.

Thats great Josh! Let us know how it runs when you take it down down. Do you run all A2W intercoolers on your fast setups? How is the performance of the custom one you built for my car going to compare to an A2W?

That is smoking fast man... Cant wait to hear more about how she runs this weekend!! 7.4's?

We did'nt get to take the turbo car. We took a nitrous car. Murillo made a few shake down hits though. His car worked well for the first time out. He is going to get his convertor tightened up it was driving through it on the big end. He had zero spool up problems though. That was one of the thing some people were talking about. He has taken rear mount stuff to the next level.
