    is there a limit/restriction to what kind of tires you can use?

    do a BP swap N/A with exintake cam swap, phantomgrip, and lots of suspension mods.

          Well it looks like there might be whole army of Festiva's there this year as I'm building a B6T powered 89 as well. At last count there may be 4 of them there if everybody brings what they say they're bringing.

          I'm over on the GRM boards quite a bit - same handle.

          Good luck and see you there!

            marty - post up your location, you sound like your a local member


            Where abouts is the GRM being held?

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                Has any body here used the rocket chip for the b6t. I had a look at the site and they are well priced and could fit in the budget.

                  There are big threads about it on FordLaser, ClubProtege, TeamCapri, as well as here. From what I've read, it is worth the bang for your buck. Rocketman has quite the following at all of those places as well.

                        by the way looked it to it and tires have to be dot aproved but not the drag slicks. u can only run slick at the drags
