I'll most probably be after a stiff(ish) pair for the rear but dont know much about it. How much would they be and how much stiffer than standard...
How can you compare a proper mini to a Maverick?! I've had 2 (well I am a Brit!) and loved them both. They aren't far off driving a go-kart,...
Well I'd like to see 300NA, and depending on how it pulls maybe 1-200 of nitrous on a progressive controller (so not a big hit). I think the axle...
I've used 60sq mm cable which is between 0 and 00 gauge for my blown 250ci V8 in my current project, didnt want any voltage drop and I'd much...

They are pretty light by standards so I have a bonus there, a mate of mine has just bought a '73 Plymouth Satellite/Roadrunner with 400ci Mopar bb...
I'm planning on rebuilding the whole car I have to a fast road/strip spec, and there is no better way of increasing the performance AND handling...
