Hi guys,
well since last posting- sold the '68 Valiant for a '72 Duster. One thing leading to another- had to find a home for my 528 Hemi. SO, I'm trying to make this beast handle as best I can with the following limitations. I've taken some weight off the nose with fiberglass hood & bumper w/ aluminum brackets.

I'm needing opinions on front tire size & steering ratio. I don't want this STREET car to steer like a lumber wagon. Looking for 17 or 18" rims. I think the rear will end up 285/40/18 on a 18x9; 5.6 BS.

Here are the collected parts so far:

528 stroked gen2 Hemi (600+ HP)- has aluminum heads, w.p. and 4 bbl intake- so not all that different than a 440. TTI 2.125" headers.

O/D Automatic (0.70 ratio)

manual box- keep 24:1 or do FFI 16:1 or 20:1?

Bilstein shocks (4)

FFI- 0.940 T Bars

Gerst tubular UCA's & strut bars

US Car tool complete chassis kit- frame ties, boxes, rad support, etc.

Offset rear spring 1/2" inboard kit

Viper caliper/11.75 Dr.Diff disc set-up 10" drum spindle;

SSBC 10" rear discs on 8-3/4 A-body housing, Moser BBP axles, 3.23 gears

Tuff steering wheel 14"

'70 Cuda "Badfish 2"- in the works
