Do a web search on "tirebiter"... I saw a TR6 this summer with three 2"
SU's on it that this guy built.

I think his web page is http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/tirebiter

The car that this guy built was pretty "insane" with re-worked stock
rockers and .500 cam lift, more than 10:1 compression and a _lot_ of
tricks. I'll bet the car is a blast to drive. But he had a GoodParts
triple SU setup with three HS8's.

At any rate, tirebiter - he's your man.
