However , for what he's doing with it Stahl , Lemons etc etc were a little pricey..............so he opted for the Hedmans ( Hustlers )......all they had in an 1 7/8 was a "flat collector" deal , for his car.
I know they are less popular , but I have no idea what the "adverse" effects could be.

Just curious as to what difference it would make.... if it's a bracket car?
