As always Steve, I'm jealous. Interested in the RWHP numbers, with the new suspension mods that thing should be crazy. I DON'T envy trying to get it all sorted before optima, seat time is everything, and your not going to have alot of it with the new set up. That said, who cares, its all about the fun factor, and I can't imagine how gitty you have to be to take it out and beat on it . Ron

Should really change the look of the car. I will keep the grey/brushed 5-spokes for track duty."A ship in port is safe, but that's not what ships are built for."

Steve, when you get sick of these new wheels, can I get them from you for my 70?!? I'll take the engine when it's time to change the oil (i.e. replace with new lump....) too....

Since Fikse closed, did someone transfer to Forgeline?
Now I know where to get replacements..Ron DeRaad

In case you care to know..I just measured the 18x10 Fikse Profil 5S at 47.4lbs with Toyo 285 R888's. I have new R888 275's that will replace the 285's at 28.2lbs. So rim is around 19lbs. Forgeline appear to be thinner in the spokes so may be a little lighter? Originally Posted by Bow Tie 67

Damn Ron!!! You really should learn to read what you've written before posting it. Sick fools like me could take a sentence like this to an entirely different level. And you're lucky I'm just giving you that warning.... Originally Posted by Ron S

Car fired up and ran ok.. brough up stuff to temp and no leaks.
Running VERY lean though.. my AF meter is showing pegged at 16:1 .. but the exhaust smells really rich (lots of hydrocarbons)
Trailering to dyno tune next Wednesday.. was gonna drive it there :(
New wheels look bad freakin ass.. I'm sick as a dog right now so no pics or weights but I will get them next week."A ship in port is safe, but that's not what ships are built for."
