Tire size

[aleborjas]

hi i i'm having problems to make hook a car with KB mammoth 20 psi arround 730 whp, stroker, heads, cams etc, manual trans 4.10 gears, full drag suspension, 28X10.5 slicks, -3 pinion angle, 10" wheel, the track is not very good compared to USA tracks , i have no way to make it hook, what tire size you all use for that power? 29x11? or 29x12?

Not sure this is the right section, but 4.10's with a 20psi twin screw ??? Your defing going to want tall tires 28"

wrong section, but a damn big tire!

I met a guy with a supersnake who fit 335's in the rear on custom 12.5" rims. I thinkhe had to move the rear shock inward at the top. Point being you can fit some wide rubber with a little modification. It fit under the fender.

Or you can buy a wide body kit and go even wider...

do you have a wotbox? The 2-step would be handy for launch consistancy.

4.10 gears and that much power with a twin screw blower is going to be a bitch to get to hook. You may just need to back down those gears to 3.73's or so.

I have a 335 on a 12" rim under mine, no rubbing on any metal and all I had to do was remove the plastic cover on the rear shock,now with the 345 bfg's I had to move the shocks in board and do a little shaving of the piece that hits the bump stop

not always about the size of the tire. what tire are you using? what size diameter rim? define "full drag suspension".

 

[aleborjas]

right now 28x10.5 on a 10" wheel, for suspesion full adjustable lowers, relocation brakets, adjustable upper and ordering anti-rollbar...

 

[stkjock]

28 x 10.5 x 15?

 

[aleborjas]

28 x 10.5 x 15?

yes

 

[stkjock]

should have asked earlier... what brand and model tire

 

[aleborjas]

i've tried all brands, M/T, HOOSIERS, M&H the worst one were M/T the one that works better is hoosiers but i will buy GOODYEAR is the only that works for our tracks but i'm looking for the size i will try using 3.55 gears that i have one sitting here what hight most use with that kind power with high power twin screw...

 

[stkjock]

DRs? or slicks?

 

[aleborjas]

slicks

 

[stkjock]

Springs and shocks?

 

[aleborjas]

stock springs and adjustable QA1 shocks...

i think i'm putting in a 4R70W in...

 

[BlownAway05]

Are you racing the 1/8 mile?

 

[psfracer]

Is the first gear ratio on the 3650 a 3.38? If so, you may need just to do 2 things----if you go with a 4R70W--that first gear is 2.84 so there is your gear reduction.

Also I would go with a 29X11 Goodyear slick (since you tried the others).

 

[06whipple]

I know it's off topic but what times are you running? That's some awesome HP.

 

[aleborjas]

10.90's 1.78 60's (crap) spining all gears alot 1,2,3 fighting with the car to keep it straight....
