    How come he puts all those pics on that forum but doesn't share them with us?

    I never knew he actually HAD a big block in a Mav, I thought he was just always talking about PUTTING one in:hmmm:

    As bad as I want 18x11.5 with 335/30/18 tires. I have never seen someone put a 17x11 with 315/35/17 tires on the back of one of our cars. Now I see you need a 4 link to get any wide than my 295's.

    I've talked to him (Barry) on here, his user name is the same. He has posted alot of pics when he first did the Mustang II conversion. And even ones with the 460 in it.
    Im on there too now. StreetRod77 even posted in my thread.

    Now since it is brought to my attention, maybe i have seen that user name before. The mind is getting cluttered. Forgive me for not thinking at 100%. I did this while at work so thinking is only at about 40%. It will go up the closer I get to leaveing this building...lol

    I would love 335's in the rear but me not being able to weld is really hurting me. I have to keep paying someone to do this for me. Plus the 295's that i do have looks good, just need to get the car a little lower because those wide suckers will tuck. I thought about the 17's but really wanted 18's in the rear.

    P.S. also got this from another forum:

    I think Barry had the right idea & the most know how to get a very fast lowered stance big block 5 speed Maverick with monster back tire tires setup. I just wish I had more money. Way to go Barry.
