If that works out I’ll be going with race brakes all around 15 inch wheels and a 27.5 tall rear tire. Equates to 128 mph at 6500 rpm 5th gear crossing traps. Perfect for bolt on. Will be roughly ~135 mph depending on rpm and cam size. Should work great for heads cam as well. 3.27 gear will be the ticket imo.
What's the price on those brakes? I would assume that's all you need to get a 15" wheel on the front. Even though going from a 17x front wheel to a 15" front wheel only saves you a pound and a half per wheel.... why the hell not.

As far as gearing goes, that does sound perfect. I'm waiting to see what my dyno graph looks like before I commit to a tire and gear combo. I'm a huge advocate of "dont fear the gear". As soon as I figure out where this sucker makes peak power at and what the graph looks like, I will commit

What 27.5 tire were you looking at?
