Cal tracs are the bomb and your gonna need them with all that torque.

he helped me pick it up and we had to stop at his house to pick up my engine stand i let him use. so it was only in his driveway for 20 minutes. ( but it was in the back of his truck for 3 hours )


racing-- that's the only place i know of that sells them. i believe it's the only place you can get them since they make them. i've seen pic's of home made ones.
