    Sorry - I don't have any wheels that wide to lend you for a fit up. Have you decided on a cam yet? Did you call cam research?
    There's always something new to learn.

        A bit off topic (how normal on here) but is Leonard Refining still in business?

        For you non-Michigan folks, Leonard had a small refinery and a string of gas stations around MI (maybe in adjacent states - not sure on that) for many years, bearing the "Leonard" name. They often sponsored the weather on one of the Detroit TV stations. Just wondering if they're still alive.

          Dale,
          I'm not sure how well those look from the photos. Do you have them on 10" wide wheels?
          When you're done those 29.5's will 60 better than the smaller slicks and take all the spray that you can throw at em.

                          315 on a 14 wide rim? I cant seem to find any pics of that setup - i would think that would look funny wouldnt it?
