Actually experiencing the benefit or lack of.. of parts through trial and error does make you somewhat of an authority.

Just like Todds comments about staggered tire widths and front vs rear grip if you are speaking from experience it's worth listening to.

I want to build a PT car. To me that means the car will be track oriented but able to drive it to the track. I want it to be usable (bearable or better) on the street. Right now the raunchy old school motor is the one compromise to this plan but it is a necessary compromise.

I used to be really good at drinking beer. I think I can still hold my own.
