Dragster tire?
Looking at a swingarm dragster that has 33.5x16.5x16 on double beadlocks. I know they are to big for my 468.
Has anyone with a lower hp engine run the 33x10.5x16w?
4.30 gear

They really aren't "too big" but the 3190w or 3191w would be smaller technically.. I know plenty of people with stout 468's that run 5.0-5.2 with that size tire with zero issues..

Before I built my 555 I had a 427 in my dragster that would go 8 teens at 160 and change. I had 33.5x17x16 Hoosier 18700 on it and 4.30 gears. It probably would have gone faster with a smaller tire but it was consistent and I knew I’d be putting more power to it soon so I never changed them.

A small set of little Bubba's (107-108) or the MT 3183's with those wheels.

468 runs low 5.90's at 115 at 2900lbs, 4.88 gear with 33x15x15 in 67 camaro.

Yep, thats 5.0-5.1 in a dragster all day long.. I'd stick with either the Little bubba series or 3183
