Post subject: | What tyres to fit for copper head gaskets |
ive recently bronzed in a copper head gasket on my card board mini clubman and need to know what tyres i should run to get the most out of this high performance mod i have just done, should i run a set of Mickey Thompson drag slicks, perhaps a set of Olympic crossplys or a full on set of Kubota ride on tyres. Im just not sure what tyre will give me the best traction considering the huge amount of extra lebowatts ill be packing. Maybe i should fit a rear wing to hold her down when i break the 200klmh mark or should i fit a front splitter aswell cos its front wheel drive. |

Don't forget that if you do this to a clubby you will get about 13% more power than the same mod to a roundie, so is it a clubby or roundie? Oh and is it a van? cos sedans are more streamlined. |

Clubbie fer sure, ive tossed all the interior and glass for weight reduction and just have a racing milk crate 4 point harness and a fake nitros switch, deleted all doors and boot lid in favor of those real estate plackards made of plastic with lil holey, lines in em that make a really cool whistling noise like a gilmer drive when you do 60 klmh in a head wind, its fully sick mate, all the hot type chicks look when i roll past |

What motor are you using? it's pointless using a little one, you need at least an 1100 wit a big carby, the best carby is a webber. |

You should add an electric supercharger and a Garrett turbo so then you can suck in lots of cold air and then pump it out again even faster good for atleast 850 jiggawatts of power. I've got a 1946 bedford truck radiator that you can use as an intercooler. It would look really mint with some chrome spraypaint. |
