Guys,
I've got everything for my engine and it's being decked and line bored now getting ready for assembly. The 3 Dyno programs I've used say I'm running between 390-420 HP with about 310-345 rear wheel HP.
I've researched the forums on umteen websites trying to figure out which size and compound tire I need to run on my car. Everybody out there has a different opinion and none of them races 4000 lb 63-64 Galaxie's. Cam Research built my cam to match the compontents in and on my car and I supposibly will be shifting at 5000 rpm. At @ 200 dollars a pop I'd like to get it right the first time when it comes to buying tires. The car has a C6 Broader Racing Transmission with the lower 1st and 2nd gears and a 10" forged 2500 stall converter. The kicker is I bought a 3.25 Trac-Loc from Just Rear Ends so I could put street tires on it and go to a car show if I wanted to.
If anyone out there has run a car like mine ( especially at lower altitudes) I'd appreciate knowing what size and compound tire you would recommend. ( The fenders have to stay where they are) Thanks, Jim

JMO,but I would look at Mickey Thompson,BFG,and Nitto drag radials.The width,and diameter will depend on how much tire will fit into the wheel wells.For slicks I prefer MT's automatic compound
63 Galaxie needs tires.
