67 sbc lowered rig questions!

I have 6/7 drop on my 67. Obviously my long tubes drag like crazy. Which mods or shorties or even ram horns will clear my 3 on the tree and not drag?

Second question is my 235/60/15 tires rub. I need new ones anyways. And suggestions on size of tires in the front?

Thanks

Back when I used to run 15" a 265/50 on the rear and 245/50 on front always looked good.

I run p246/60/15 on the front of mine. No more rubbing the outside of the fender since I changed wheels with more back space

Re: 67 sbc lowered rig questions!

Wheel backspace is the trick. If your using an 15x8" wheel you might go another half inch to inch on the BS.
