Another vote for Towel City tires. Just got a set for the 56 and couldn't be happier. Look great, ride good and they are a great bunch to work with.

12.2 @116 mph. 3850 pounds and shifting gears. Drive it like I need it to make it home because it IS my ride home from the track.
I too have a TKO600 and just be aware that they get kind of reluctant to shift above 6000 RPM. Also, run the numbers on your final gear ratio,...
Remebering that carburated cars used to have a faint gas smell after they were turned off and the heat from the engine worked on what fuel was...

I have a set of fenderwell headers on my BB 56 Chevy. Sand blasting would be the best for adheasion. I hosed mine down with brake cleaner and let...
Right on! High winding small block and a four speed. Your dad is the real deal.
Oldguard, Thanks for the kind words. The poor handling comment is in comparison to my daily driver(Jeep Wranger which doesn't exactly set the...
