Thank you all for the Info
Mr Dan i am running a 8.8 I had a 255 60 r15 when I bought the car and put a 27560 r15 and thats as wide at the car will except, I have been concidering updating the suspension.
Mr Karl NOS and me have some bad blood me and her dont get along, but Doug (engine builder) is going to be looking at the motor next week and will be retuning now I have some brake in time with the new motor.
Mr Bob I think going from a 255/60r15 to a 275/60r15 327 gear is the problem then we built the 408 based around Fords crate engine( 427 535hp motor)the difference being same valve size but trick flow heads 408cid block and 750hp carb vs 780 everything else is the same. I still lost but by maybe a vette length.I am not sure if I want another race car got tired of always working on building hp and burnning up tires will see.
Mr Bill I have concidered a 275/60 MT ET street tire but like I said to mr Bob not sure of the cars direction yet. Thank you all for the responces
