I low mounted the alternator on the passenger side and got rid of the AC, power steering bracket.
I have a Grant GT wheel that is 13 inches in diameter. If the car is moving slow I need both hands (arms, shoulders, torso) to turn it. Once you get moving its not bad.
I have skinnies and alot of weight reduction.
I would never do this on a daily driven car.
Mine is weekend toy and I have 3 other cars that would have to break down before I had to use my camaro as sole transportation.
