The pics suck but I was in a hurry... so sue me. :) I'll post up some good pics as soon as I get 'em shot.
I went ahead and went all out on the install. I ordered the correct ARP 3" studs for the rears (they were relatively cheap). The fronts, however, were a whole different story. The only way to get the correct ARP long studs for the fronts is from Baer. They're the only people who have ordered a batch from ARP and they are DAMN proud of 'em... to the tune of 7.25 PER STUD! The alternative is to pull the hubs, use the perfect size drill bit on a press, and install stock-knurl studs of a different size. For the difference in time, sweat, and money, I opted for the Baer route. It was kinda pricey for the whole operation but now I'm damn sure legal at any track with any tire under any sanctioning body.
I only got 3 passes in with 'em Friday night so I'm still workin' out the launch but I knocked off a 2.04 with ease and no longer have to pedal it when I hit 2nd! 13.62 was my best pass which is about .1 quicker than I've ever run here. Enjoy...
