Do you have alteration plans for the drivetrain: Z head? Auxiliary transmission or Ruxtell axle? AC or Rocky Mountain Brakes?

I have lowered the rear 6 inches with lowering bracket , reverse eye mainspring and removing three leaf springs. Front has a 4 inch drop axle, reverse eye mainspring and 1927 spidles. Rear end has 3:1 ratio high speed ring and pinion gears.
I have the motor in GA. Having motor done. Will have A model crankshaft and connecting rods, 8:1 high compression head, high volume intake with a straight thru Holley NH. 3 speed alum warford tranny. And since it will hit 75mph with ease. I have 4 wheel hydraulic brakes. Hope to have ready by summer 2020. I have chassis parts ready to paint. Will hand build body while motor work is being done the motor shop is 3 months out

I think your Model T can officially outrun my old Toyota Corolla.

Chrisg,

Great job on the Vic V!
I haven't posted here in quite a long time.
My two Model Ts (1924 and 1913) have taken all of my phonograph money.
