    The 383 I’m looking at is advertised at 503 hp, 484 torque. I’ll know the actual when it arrives with the Dyno sheet. From speaking to Skip, at Skip White performance, it will be very street friendly. He’s used that combo often.

    I'm interested in buying the McQueen bike fenders like you. Can't wait to see them on your car with those size tires and wheels that you have choosen.

    Not going to be so easy, I need to do some serious modification to the fronts to get the coverage I need. Tires are bigger than the fenders

    275's in the front are wide, but look mean! How do you think the 315's in the rear will fit under the fenders, or do you think they will need to be modified also?

    The 315's will barely fit, might stick out a little but that's ok with me.

    Had a little self inflicted set back. I drilled a hole in my fuel tank. So, great excuse to get a Boyd's tank. Ordered one this morning. Pulled the tank out last night.

    Finished up the McQueen rear fenders last night. Didn't see how many fasteners to use so I did 7 using 1/4-20 rivnuts (deep reach for fiberglass) and stainless button heads on each one. Started 2" from each end and spaced 8.5" apart was the perfect layout.

    Good job! Will be nice to see when it's back on the ground how the spacing of those big 315's look with the edge of the fenders.

    While the tank is out, I took the opportunity to add a coating of the Boom Mat spray. This is my first time using this product and so far, I really like it. Nice thick coating that seems to do what it's intended to do. Did a little on the inner doors also.

    Installed the 3pt belts and removed the 4pt harness'. I think I got them installed correctly, didn't have any instructions.
