You can get an idea of how low it sits to the ground. The side pipes are configured for a 351. They are being reconfigured and will be raised abd tucked up into the chassis - we'll get some out of it. The tire gaps are horrific, but there is a sense of purpose when sitting on the ground.



I need to cycle everything and check for clearance especially in bump and turning. If it all can be made to work we should get ground effect by sheeting the bottom. The difference in tire diameter will give us the rake.



Unfortunate the front is on an 8" rim (steering response), but the tread width is inspiring. I'd like to push the front tire inboard a little, but I am against constraints. I can see trying to drive it hard with this setup much more than I ever could with the 225. If we can get it to work, it should be able to run down all kinds of stuff. The pipes could prove challenging.
