              How much were the drags? I need a set for my Camaro, but haven't bitten the bullet yet. I'm afraid I'll loose most of my wet traction, which I wouldn't like :(

                I like the rims :tup: I would have guessed they were smaller than a stock rim if im not mistaken (They're what? 16"?)

                            haha thanks for busting me out bibs!

                            Yea it is a GN motor that has ported/polished heads and intake, bigger turbo, built tranny, upgraded comverter, FMIC, 50lbs injectors, and currently runs 11.7's @ 117mph. I need a new turbo BADLY!!! 5 psi in first, 10psi in 2nd, and finally in third i hit about 21psi. It should be seeing 21 in all the gears but my exhaust wheel is VERY badly messed up.

                            SUM-521-5461PS 15x4 FRONTS $90 a piece
                            SUM-521-5862PS 15x8 BACKS $120 a piece
                            $10 handling fee, and free shipping, gets you to a total of $430.

                            Back tires are MT DR's i believe they are 275/65/15's
                            front are some cheapo sumitro that were $45 a piece, they are 185/65/15

                              Congrats, the wheels look great! Those are much nicer than the crappy weld draglites I had.

                                At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
                                Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
