What back spacing did you do with this wheel and tire combo? I have the same sub frame and engine combo. Did you try a 275?

Did you use the factory A/C bracket? And are you using vintage air?

How far back did you have to cut the shifter hole from the original location?

Thanks in Advance, nice to see your build. Great Job.

P.S. Great machine work and I love what you did with the sub frame connectors.

The front offset is 18x2.5 outer & 18x6.5 inner as I gave it to Forgeline.. I don't have it it on paper for the rear but will get it for you when I have the wheels off the next time..

Did you try a 275? No.. But I am sure it will work will max offset..

Did you use the factory A/C bracket? My machine shop made the brackets to mount the A/C compressor that was given to us by Vintage Air @ the time.. Now the have a smaller A/c compressor


How far back did you have to cut the shifter hole from the original location?
I wanna say about 2 inches..


Thanks in Advance, nice to see your build. Great Job. Thank you!! We try to come up with new cool things!
