So if my motor is half as big do I run tires that are half as big =:()

My seven is running a 1700cc crossflow that dynoed at 148hp.  I cannot
imagine what the V8 version would feel like.

========================
Well, I know of at least one Kansas City couple that runs 13" x 10" wide
Hoosier slicks up front and 16" x 12" Hoosier slicks out back on their
'62 Super 7.

Of course they're also running a Chevy ZZ3 350 crate motor, Muncie 4
speed and a Lincoln rear end.

Hope that helps.  ;^)

See you on course.
