Thanks 4cruzin, this is my first venture into the world of Mopar.  I have a 68 Camaro that I have built from the ground up that is also in the pro-touring arena.  I hope that I do not make people on this board mad for not going back original.  This is a great forum for information and I have been reading and taking it all in.

Here are some pics.
Nice ride Bamakx, how wide do you think you can go, and what offset? I have 17x8 rears on my Cuda, but it looks like I could go wider if I new the correct offset.

Yeah I personally can't stand modified cars. You can tell by looking at mine, 100% stock and original...  not

You can make up for it bamakx by posting more pics though.
Pleaseeeeee

Thanks Blackcuda,  I would say no problem with 275 maybe even 295 on the rear.  I will pull the rear this weekend and make sure of the backspacing but I believe it is 4.5 inches.   I will post more pics but how do I keep them from being so small?  I know this is off topic but I am have some confusion on the harmonic balancer on a 440.  The one that I just had to take off after just 6000 miles was a professional products 90013 that is neutral balanced.  It backed off and enlarged the id of the balancer.  I have some drag racing friends that said that they have had same problem with professional product balances on chevys.  The confusion comes from externally balanced or not.  If you motor should have had an external balancer would I have not noticed some high degree of vibration?
