You might want to tie it down before you hit the track. Wouldn't want it to fly out!

To respond to a few comments:

These require a 20x15 wheel...which i'm having made by intro wheels. here's the wheel:

I know they will not "fit" in my fender wells...do you really think i'd just by a tire like this without knowing exactly what will be involved to get it to fit? i'll be narrowing the frame, axle, replacing/relocating the fuel cell, tubing the bed out, re-running the exhaust, and ditching the leaf spring set up for a 4-link coil-over.

Are we getting a blower? Or just running a cammed 5.7?

it's fairly stock now. it'll be getting a power adder for sure, but that's kinda up in the air still...either turbod or stroked and bottle fed.
