Dan, That's a good point about the tire and wheel size. I had no choice because of the upgraded ERA rearend's brake placement. The Jag rearend allows you to go up and over. I thought the same thing when I saw the exhaust on 3104. The clearance is low, but you get used to it once you drive it awhile. At first, I kept forgetting how little clearance there was, but it then becomes second nature. Legendary MC had a 289 car...forgot the chassis number...but it was also blue and it looked like the pea shooter pipes were actually an inch or two from touching!
