Chris,
You could possibly fit an 8" rim under the rear but it would depend mainly on
tyre size.I've been using 215-65-14 A008 or 509 yokies on 7'' rims with no scrap
at all with a bit of lipping.My car pulls the suspension to the stops under
acceleration so I cant have any rubbing.The comm ally radiator is 545 wide,418
high,and 35 thick.They're about 30 percent better in cooling suface area,better
air flow compared to a normal V8 holden and ally also cools better.Probably
easier to run a pipe across the radiator.A mate uses one in his rota and works
well.
