I知 still debating that. I知 package protected up to a 285 front and a 345 rear. I need to evaluate the current 200 tread wear tires that are out now and determine which ones are the best for all events.

They bolt on so I知 not worried about it.

They could change a few times prior to SEMA.

This is already an awesome build. I feel like a junkie waiting for another fix. I look forward to every update. But in the meantime, I'll read your Building the Mule book....again! Best money spent. Love it.

I figured there might be some strategy behind sizing on this project based on what was learned from the recent builds (Jackass & Red Devil). The whole 69 vs. 67 spacial constraints within the wheel-wells had me wondering.

Since this one is a 67 like RedWitch, I was curious if we might see something different because of the different suspension configuration.

You're one of the few that can get away with tagging Mark's car.

I like it.

I had Griffin build me a custom radiator and an intercooler for this build. I had a similar one in Red Devil and it worked great.

My dad and I have been hitting it hard on Marks car non-stop since we got it. As well as trying to stay up on other shop projects. The car is Moving along very good. The whole body is ready to be finish sanded and painted. All panels fit awesome as well as the new hood Mark brought over! I blew the whole car apart last week in order to bodywork the firewall and smooth up the floor pans a little bit. I currently have the car flipped over on the rotisserie right now and have the floor pan about ready to spray. I will get some up to date pictures posted up this weekend. But here are some from last week before I blew the car apart.
I will try and post up pictures more often as we are getting closer to the part everyone wants to see, Paint!

Now off to the garage to work on my car!
