Congrats on the change, Im building a pro street aswell and love the pro stock look and feel to my rides look but with you being a pro touring fan of sorts now adays you can have your cake and eat it too with the new mickey thompson tires i condsidered them myself the pro street width with 18-20 rims.
Personally not for me simply because the only make a few wheels this big and not to mention each wheel is over 3K each but its an option
I have seen them and personally i think they look like a muscle machines diecast lol ecs with the 20's on them i like the big tire and profile look and cant wait to see your progress good luck
Also any one see the new Billet specialties wheels just out there SFI approved and real light and not bad priced either im ordering them for mine, later George

The car already has full tubs (to the frame) and a serious notch in the frame. I was either going to look at Cal trac leafs and bars or a ladder bar syst. I would prefer the Cal, but space will tell (leaf to tire clearance!). I was able to fit 31x14.5's on my 67 with same notch and tubs + offset hangers and the car was very low, so if i can do that i will. But if i that 4 link (airbar) works out, its aleady there....And paid for! So it could stay, nice thing is i don't have to cut my gas tank on top of things.

I already have a 12 bolt, looking for a 400 core and Big block THAT is for sure!
(Can already hear those 2 chamber flow's!!!)
