I cant believe Im saying this but for your application Id buy some rocks. The pumpkins on the medium stuff is too big to be useful. You might have 44s or even bigger tires but your ground clearance is the same as Rocks with 35s. Ill take some measurements tomorrow. Weve got 2 80s model F700s and 1 99 model GMC Top Kick with an Eaton rearend (the only GM product Ive ever liked. Funny thing is only the cab is similar to the GM trucks everything else is BEEF). IIRC 11.00R20s are about 42-44" tall so that would be a good comparison

Karl,
can I get some pics of what you did to your stealth? I might as well clean it up while Ive got it off the motor. At a minimum port match it to the TFSs and clean up some of the casting flaws.

Thats basically all I did. I port matched to the intake gasket, since I had already done the heads. Then I took the 6" long rod and 80 grit sanding drum and removed all of the casting flash. With the 6" rod, I was almost able to get to the entire length of each runner, all the way to the "floor" under the carb pad. I'll see of I can get some pics of it to show what I did. It's dirty, as it as a $110 ebay find!, but you can get the jist.
