Blake got the info he wanted. Ask yourself; why didn't you?

MCForstenRacing · 07-21-2011, 08:26 PM

Hey that's cool ill find out in a few months. I asked out of curiosity. I wish you the best of luck. I do apologize for the hijacking and if anyone felt disrespected by me never was my intention. My feelings aren't hurt brother. Continue on with your thread man.600 when our builds are done I look forward to a race.

*BlakeW* · 07-21-2011, 08:44 PM

what are you calling a back half?

*BlakeW* · 07-21-2011, 09:24 PM

They changed the rules to stock rails and no four links.

syrupdawg · 07-21-2011, 09:40 PM

But I still don't know! I've been wondering this for awhile

VMAX · 07-21-2011, 10:07 PM

For that size, go short bed. Are you required factory firewall?

*BlakeW* · 07-26-2011, 06:34 PM

I already have a shortbed sitting at the shop waiting to get "trimmed". As far as I know its factory firewall. I've been thinking about setting back the engine a bit. But I'm just not sure if I want to do it.

Is it too much to ask what the lb difference was?
