Overly complex and not required for what you want to do. If anything a simple single setup would work, but the low end grunt of a S/C is probably the better solution.

Why rev high? I doubt you'll need to need to rev high to get the job done.

great response, it's your car do what you like with it! I think people these days put too much weight on what other people think is a good idea and forget to just do what they want even if it doesn't always make the most sense. As long as it gets the job done properly go for it!

easy.. just modify some bushwacker flares for a truck..
kinda like the stock flares on the Z71 Tahoe, dodge ram, or durango to me.

ya'll will get more pics. I'm typing as I'm taking a break from packing part of my truck up to head down to Florida to work on it some more, I'm not forgetting my camera's charger this time either.
I might go hunting for a near rear end for the car, I might be able to find a Dana 60 out of an F-250 somewhere...since they're everywhere in the Daytona area.
