Some 315 Nitto DR should do the trick, but remember you have to have the rear end to support traction with that amount of power.

well went to pick up the hood, and it was done, but they wanted it to have more time to dry, so they could look for imperfections when it was dry...oh well, better get it done right the first time. forgot to take a picture though!

As for your tire question, I swear by the BFG KDW2's (the one with the wicked tread pattern! For a street (non drag radial) they are as good as it gets for the money! Great in the dry and absolutely great on wet pavement!

well the shop sprayed my hood but messed it up, and i didnt want to leave it there for 6 weeks, so i took it with me and they didnt charge me. i told them i would bring it back when i returned. then they will strip it and re-due it over again, and wont charge me till it looks perfect!

Hopefully I will have my engine back, installed and broken in by then. We might be going on the dyno around the same time period.

ok guys so i was driving yesterday and got on the freeway, and the drone on the dynomouth cat back is freakin ridiculous! is is like driving with a cutout open all the time! i dont like it, my wife hates it and at start up it is pissing off the neighbors. so i have decided to switch to an E-cutout and a magnaflow cat back. i am still deciding on which Magnaflow cat back i want:

This one is pretty cheap
http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...roducts_id=626

this one is more, and i cant tell the difference except for the tips and more sections of piping
http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...oducts_id=2045

do these sound the same, if so i might as well as get the cheaper one, cause i dont thing quad tips are worth 200 bucks

Just go with a 3 inch in 3 inch out muffler like $60 from jegs.magna flow and weld it in and save a bunch a money.I got one on my car with a cutout and love it.Closed you can barely hear it open with my cam sounds like a animal.The only bad thing is u lose the dual tips coming out.It has to flow better than that junk Stock crossflow muffler.

well i am on this really boring underway (out to sea) but we are pulling it to San Diego to pick up some riders for a couple weeks. i was gonna send my hood back to the paint shop when i got back in june, but even though it is a little messed up (looks like it dried to fast or they put to much paint on it cause it has a bunch of stress cracks that look like mud after it dries) so i will probobly go take it to the dyno, then take my hood back. during down time i can install my new window motor and track window fix wiring kits, new exhaust setup, stainless steel braided brake lines, and change the transmission fluid, oil, diff fluid, and power steering fluid. it is about that time, and i already have like 200 miles on my heads and cam with fresh oil, so time to change that as well.

Really impressive that you did all this yourself. Wish someone like you was in my area. I need someone that specialized in LS1's
