You just need to plan ahead if you are going to use it - Tires warm? Check. Wide road? Check. Road not crowned? Check? You get the idea.

Go for it. You can mount the solenoids so that they are pretty inconspicuous. Pics in my gallery.

Actually, this was for a 302 on my GT40. I had been "humbled" by a BMW M5 recently (I posted the story in the interim forum and the thread disappeared) and I wanted to retaliate.
I don't think I want any more power for my 460 Cobra. I never thought I'd say that but I'm perfectly happy with 550hp. Tough enough making it bite!

Cheers!
