OT. Build looks great.
If you don't mind me asking...
Could you continue to post pics and add prices of this process?
I ask so you can help noobs like myself.
So we can get a ball park estimate of how much something like this cost.
19 x 9.5f and 19 x 11r
I wanna say the offsets for around +10 to +15. The guy I bought them from took the damn stickers off the barrels that had all the stats. I'll be rolling the fenders for sure when I get the right suspension set-up

I'll post it up when I get a list together, stay tuned for that
I guess it depends on the governing association. The idea is that in the case of a flexplate, flywheel, clutch or torque converter explosion, they don't want your fuel system near the flying parts. I believe the NHRA is 6" fore or aft the bellhousing hence why most people mount them on the side. I had mine in the same spot as yours last year and decided to relocate it.
Also, if this is going to be a drag car, then you don't really need bigger brakes, especially not in the rear, so I'd only replace the fronts if anything.
I have my old drag tires mounted on steelies (a pair of ET Streets 15x10.5 that still have plenty of tread left), if you're interested in a cheap set.
Why go to a 1/8 mile? That's pointless and a waste of time. Go to either TX Motorplex at Ennis or Dallas Raceway at Crandall. I recommend the latter, as it's a faster track and usually has better prep.

haha, don't worry my shop did the install, and they had a lot to work through. I'm not a DIY'er on that big of a project.
You really should've come out to the drag strips with me when I still lived there. I drag raced all alone for like 5 years in the Z! PM'd you back.
BTW, about the brakes, don't replace them if you don't need to. All you're doing is slowing yourself down in a straight line and you have plenty of space to do that after the 1320'.

Truth. My 3 piece advans requires a double hand ****** and clean. While my friend's TE was like a dumbell curl.
^ He's going to have separate wheels for drag strip use, like most drag racers. Plus, width and offset doesn't matter nearly as much as the compound of the tires, proper suspension, and alignment.
