hey, what's the quad in your avatar? my son said he thought you had a 250r. i've got a couple banshee's myself. lightly modded, pc pipes and jetted. nothing like putting a stroke wide open on the pipe! i'm closing in on fifty soon, so getting back into cars will have to replace racing my cr250. probably a bit safer too. a fast bike or quad is the closest thing i've found to the rush of a fast car. unfortunately i can't cruise either on the street. sorry, got waaaay off topic.

I think where most of you have your problems with all of this, is the fact that you really don't fully understand the internal workings and dynamics of the common combustion engine. There is no magic tune up, and motors are stupid. The only time a motor will complain is when something is wrong.
No, I live in Toledo.
I'd go with some Strange 10-ways, control arms, front drag springs and the chassis stuff. The 275 might rub if the car is low enough. I wouldn't change the rear springs without knowing where the instant center of the car is - that will tell you if the rear will lift or squat.
The 275's on a 4.5 BS will rub, because if I'm at a good angle with passengers in the back, mine rub a little. But with just me and someone in the passenger seat, they're fine. I have the Wild Rides battle boxes "lower only" in my car. I wouldn't even had messed with them if I could weld back then. I reworked mine some to strengthen them because the car would shift left to right when I shifted gears, so bad it would go out of the lane.That's what I get for doing donuts and such with slicks when I was 19 years old.
Yeah, it's an 88R .20 over, rad valve, FMF pipe/silencer, ported, head milled, works triple rate shocks with resevoirs, revalved rear shock, full bore plastic, and a bunch of other stuff.
Oh, I had a 98 Banshee, fast, but I couldn't jump it worth a crap. I may be getting rid of the R this spring to get another bike, I miss my YZ 250.
What you want is easy, so many similar cars out there! get some good suspension, and adjustable shocks and struts, we have had cars with similar setups go high 7's on radials!
"You didn't Build it" LMFAO isn't that what Oboma said too?
hangemhigh huh??
MAN, I HAD NO IDEA YOU HAD THE SAME NAME AS ME. MAYBE I'LL RE-REGISTER WITH A DIFFERENT USER NAME. MY NAME ON MOPARTS.COM IS HANGEMHIGH AND IF THERE WAS THE SAME NAME MM WOULDN'T HAVE ALLOWED IT TO REGISTER.
