I think that it would be a fun combo to do. I just don't think that it's something that you're going to be able to "throw" together.

I don`t know if they are still available, but 4.62 was a common ratio for the Ford 8". That said, the selection of ratios for the 8.8 is much better, but not nearly as good as the choices for a 9".

I have not. I know Billy used to run a 28 on the other 6 cylinder nova on and off years ago. I did try some 26 radials, but they actually slowed the car down a touch due to the weight. The Goodyears I am running are 5 pounds lighter than any other 26 inch slick I could find, and the car has been very happy with them so far. I may try a 30 radial some day, but I wouldn't do it without changing the rear gear too.

Where is your combo going through the traps at now? Where does it peak?
