I would have to look it up. I prefer not to offer back space specs due to the variations in pad thickness, etc. I always recommend consulting the company you are buying wheels from instead.

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix

Just saw the new issue of Street Trucks, The American Racing ad is two pages, Elwood looks real good!

Wonder if AR is going to make it as a poster?

I agree it would make an awesome poster. If I hear of that happening I'll let you know.

@N2TRUX, fantastic work done to Elwood! Thanks for letting us read about it, even a year or so later!

I'm just north of you, in old Magnolia.

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix

Check out what made an appearance in Cleveland, GA today!

I never thought that I would have the opportunity to see Elwood in person. An absolutely gorgeous truck. Pictures can not capture the true detail that went into this truck.

Funny this came up. I was thinking about this guy the other day and hadn't seen him post in a long time. Where has he been?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Ken is still around, 2020 caused some challenges to all of us and he was no exception. Here is a link to his latest build. He is still working on it, but not all the updates are in the thread. I follow him on Instagram where he is a bit more active.

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix

Yeah, 2020 was a horrible year for most. I was following that build, but it just sort of died off. Well, as long as he's well
