Sounds like it`s going to be a bruiser. 72 Dart 470 n/a BB stroker street car `THUMPER`...Check me out on FB Dominic Thumper for videos and lots of carb pics......760-900-3895.....

Kevin...They are 10.5x 29.5..I am wondering about the gears myself...I think it may be happier with a 4:10?? Jimmy said the block should be done today or monday from the machine shop...He also convinced me to go with a static oil pickup... Need your rear end checked out? Contact Grizzly!!

You have 29.5 tires so the 4.56 should be fine.
