Thanks they had me wondering, but they fit well.

Quick question, is that the standard DSE mini-tub kit and directions that those tires fit into or did you do something extra?

My car rebuild was done by Mike’s custom Cars he did the DSE mini tubs the way they instruct you to do. He had me order the wheels and built the rear to what he figured from having the wheels. He got it perfect. I haven’t trimmed the wheel well lip and it looks good to go. If I lower the car I’ll have to check again to make sure.

Hi Wayne. How much clearance do you have to the inner wheel housing?

Looks great Wayne. I just got my tires mounted to my new rims as well. The 345 is a very tight fit. I'll have to trim the outer lip a little, I think.
I have about 3/8" on the inside, although the pic makes it look tighter.

I got some pictures of the frame connector brackets welded to the sub.

He has more welding and then dress them up

Hi Don here is a picture of the distance from the frame to the tire.

The welder @akuma.fab said the distance was about 3/4" at that spot of the picture and up above at the closest is 1/2".

I just got some pictures of the work on the exhaust, he made an X pipe to fit around the 4l85. Here's a few pictures.

Here are a few pictures of it where it's going on the car.

This has me concerned. I'm planning to have the exhaust coated, I don't think they can do anything for the the flex coupler. I'm going to make a heat shield if there's room, I'll also put heat shield over the trans cable.

Some of his TIG work.

Looks fantastic!!!

The X pipe fabrication looks top notch, but it appears to neck the exhaust down to basically single exhaust.
