Looks badass. What is the size of the rear wheel and tire combo? And who did your TH350 setup? Im lookin to go the same route with the auto and Im searching around right now.

wheels are 15 x 8 with 5.5 backspacing
tires= drag radials 275/50/15

You will have to grind of a little on the rear calipers so it doesnt rub inside of the wheel.

trans= i make the adapter plate to bolt any gm tranny on there :) without any cutting!! just bolt the plate to your block, and then bolt the trannyton to the plate, also it already has the starter hole with the bolt holes tapped. for half the price anyone out there is selling it for. th350 was built by my brother, then you would need to measure up a driveshaft and get that made. also buy a shifter.

Very nice. Look's like traction will not be much of an issue.

??Are you painting engine bay? If not then I highly recommend it. Seems a shame to have everything else looking killer, having a killer build and then pop the hood and dull engine bay.

those tires look real mean.... what kind of tread life do you get on those as a DD? or are you using them for track use only?
