Re: widest wheel sizes on stock suspension parts?

Need to know:
What year truck?
What type of suspension (if 67~72)?
Body type (step-side or fleet)?
Year of the rear end?
Dropped? If so how much?

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.
