I used spacer to un tub my '46 along with maximum backspace wheels. I have no ill effects after 5 + years of use. Go for it!
My '26 Modified weighs 1750. I also build airplanes and made the car as light as possible. It has a 302/T5/8.8 with alum.heads
Definitely a '46 as the trim is dished as opposed to crowned. Guard the rear quarter trim as it delivery dedicated. Congrats and advise if I can help!

Looks great, nice detail work & interesting components!

That's an outstanding build, congrats! Also, it looks like your a busy boy in the garage. Keep up the good work.
