I have 58 ghia with a 5" ride master beam with no shock towers. I am bulding a appox 200 hp IDA weber engine 2276cc . Looking for some feedback on how my narrowed beam with no shock will handle it ...

thanks Cool

It will suck, may even get wheel hop on the front end in a corner like a Rail, pushing out.....

I do shocks if it is street driven.... RB

It will be fine in a straight line

Trying to power through a turn would be highly unpredictable; if the turn is very smooth it will oversteer, if the front wheels get bouncing you'll understeer right into the curb
