yes 6.50 in the 1/4. I don't think the owner is going to put that kind of power in it. realistically probably a 7.80 - 8.0 car. once you get to a 7.50 cert it is not a ton more work to get a 6.50 cert, makes the car worth a lot more when finished. this will be a legal x275 build, going to make it possible to put a 315 or 30 x 11.5w tire in it.
my new master bathroom pics, this makes wifey happy. I have a local amish furniture builder doing my cabinet work.0201181950.jpg0201181954_resized.jpg

last 2 pics are my old trusty greenlee bender this is for sale, 1''-1 1/4''-1 1/2'' 1 5/8'' and 1 3/4'' dies.
my buddy I starting a distillery here locally in phoenix ny gave me a 1 hp Bridgeport mill with vise, 2 collet sets and a bunch of tooling and he had the 3 3/4 x 7'' I beams I used for my jig,,,,, get this no BS free and he delivered it to me. the building he had the stuff in is where the new distillery is and there are a shit ton of federal regulations regarding contents of the building and the mill had to go immediately,,, happy birfdee to me. also gave me an 20'' metal band saw.
go to lock1distillingco.com to see what he is up to, he also owns PWF fabrication also in phoenix ny go to pwfny.com he does some really neat high end fabrication projects.
