This is the best pic that i have (http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/Matt_Leuck/IMG_0003.JPG) right now. Dont know how much it helps though. -Matt ------------------ 1971 Chevelle (http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/Matt_Leuck/mycar3.jpg) 383 (http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/Matt_Leuck/myenginenSmalln.JPG) / 200-4R (http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/Matt_Leuck/mattleucktranny.jpg) Soon to be 383 / Tremec 3550 5spd (http://chevelles.com/showroom/Matt_Leuck/TREMEC3550nSmalln.JPG) AIM :MLeuck1651, Stroked71Bowtie "If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough."

YOU MUST USE 5.5" of backspacing if you use a 10" rim or else it will not work. This is a tight fit, but can be done. Mine is stock and i have a slight rub on one tire. You may have to massage your fender lip just a bit. ------------------ Adam Layman 1971 Chevelle Malibu My Webpage (http://www.nd.edu/~alayman/) Sophomore at Notre Dame NEW WEBPAGE!

The reason we ask is that we need to post 25-50 pics of our aluminum bed/wheel tubs, aluminum dash bezel and aluminum firewall.
