Head gaskets not that big a job on a 4age. You could probably leave the intake stuff on there, just disconnect throttle and fuel lines.. Take off exhaust...
... oh yeah i remember now stock clearances should be fine, try one or 2 thou over and see how you go. do you do alot of highway driving? when i went up to...

... you want specific rims? or just any? what you want is 4x114.3 stud pattern, 5.5" or 6" wide, and i think (from memory) about 90-95mm backspace (don't quote...
Rob, that is how I have my DGV setup. It relates the ports in the manifold and adapter plate better this way, not to mention the fuel, choke and accelerator....
