On the rear try it unlocked if you set up the rear correctly it will pull posy off the line.
Theres nothing like going 20mph down the track and doing a hard right while sliding the sled around you to make ya get rid of a locked rear. Been there done that LOL

We run all oil in the cooling system, we use a electric pump to circulate the oil through the engine to a oil cooler and into a expansion tank.

He would have to run a dodoge dart rearend if he wants to keep it unlocked. The stock will kick out and break. I dont think you can shim up a stock rear. And he wont have the the speed me and you run lol he has a smaller motor too so itll keep him safe to let him expirement a little

Thats what i was thinking. This little motor will get me going and give me time to do chassis setup. And keep my eyes open for a big motor to put in another chassis in the future.

I am thinking a mower deck driveshaft. It will have u-joints at both ends and a slip shaft in the middle.
Oh yea and come up with the funds for a clutch.

Turf Tires ? I bought new tires for my diesel over the winter from Vogel.(VM09's) can't wait to run them.
Looks like your getting there
