          Way past drilled rotors! They are drilled and slotted.

          The guy I bought the car from had boxes of new race parts for this car. The rotors were a bad choice on his part. I plan to replace them after I get everything back together and break in the engine.

            Update...the engine is together.

            The car is slowly getting back together. Next week I start on the roll cage and exhaust.

                                What size did you end up going with on the wheels? 7" or 8"?
