Default Killer Set Up, Underslung??

[QUOTE=57hemicuda;386214]Forgot my favorite part about the car, the chassis is underslung and it will run 335's on all 4 corners, I will be able to rotate the tires.LOL

I hate to sound like a noobie, BUT... What are the advantages to an underslung chassis setup? I get the basics of this kind of geometry change for an underslung rear end set up. Ride height advantages, bigger tires, lower center of gravity, etc... I also realize that this set up needs a higher frame rail (or notched frame rail) to accommodate the rear end travel due to the fact it is located in a higher/taller than stock location. Not really an issue when a custom chassis is going in.

What is the hub-to-hub track width? And how much room does that give you for the engine between the frame rails?

335 all around? Bet your car will stick wherever you put it. Sick, really, really SICK!!

BTW, I love seeing these kinds of builds, especially when the the floor is gutted, replacement frame is tucked under the body and the wheelbase/stance gets adjusted for looks and handling gains.
