Performance mark guys, lots of questions.

[MachME]

What is the widest wheel, tire combo we can fit in the rear with the fenders rolled? (this is when the top inside of the fender is made flat so there is no tire rub)

I want to send the rear wheels away to get widend and put some big sticky meets on. I know the cobra irs guys need to sometimes run a low profile IRS bolt to clear larger tire/wheel combos as well, is this needed?

Another question is what size stall are any of you performance guys running? Im thinking of bigger since these motors car rev, like a 4k stall? I really want this car to run.

Exhuast- What are good nice looking wide tips and how do i get them flush with the bumper cut outs? The stock tips hang low=look dumb.

Some other things
-can someone link me to a write up on j-mod
-also a link on how to lower the car via air bag sensor's
-with the auto, im thinking 430 gears, is there a need to upgrade to a larger tranny cooler and or a larger pan? Want to make sure everything stays cool on the interstate. Is so, what are you running?
-i will be adding a brace to the irs cover and putting better bushings in, i also want to do subframe connectors if possible like the mustang guys do. Is there anything else to upgrade, like the sway bars? I remember seeing pictures of a stock mark 8 doing auto cross, under a sharp turn the edge of the trunk the fender were actually contacting each other because so much flex in the car.
-is anything else a gimme to do, like lower t stat etc that helps these cars? How much does deleting the intake runner deals that open up help? With the cobra guys, i always hear its worth it and its not worth it.
-stock fuel will be fine for a stock car?
-what kinda numbers are you guys putting down on a dyno? list mods as well and if tuned or not.

Im hoping with the stall, gears, exhaust, tune, CAI, alum drive shaft and sticky tires it would hit at least mid-high 13's all day.


Thanks!

Here's a lot of answers in the form of a run on sentence. Dunno on the wheel/tires, when you say "bigger" stall you should say higher, because higher RPM stall converters can be physically smaller and what stall to get depends on what else you have planned so do a search, the jmod is on TCCOA, sensor lowering is in the tech section of this site, do a search on gears, ADDCO makes upgraded F&R swaybars, colder thermostat doesn't do much unless you have a tune that turns your fan on at that temp, deleting IMRCs is a no-no until you have gears/stall and/or forced induction because it sacrifices low end torque for HP, stock everything is fine for a stock car - hence the word stock, and I put down 223rwhp/241ft.lbs with no real power mods on my 93 (the pull was stopped early, otherwise it probably would've done 240whp.)

Yup. Right here. Clicky here

You go right ahead and hope. Maybe that hope will add a few HP while it's at it.
