Make sure the brake pedal is hard and doesn't go to the floor. If planning on running in the 13's you'll need a helmut and a safety loop. Same rules as everything else listed above are good for the 12's. If running aftermarket thick flanged rims and drag radials you will need open ended lugnuts and long wheel studs. If running factory lugnuts on factory wheels with drag radials you will probably be ok. Also pop on a extra carb return spring as they usually want two springs in the event one fails. They actually busted my balls for not having a clamp on my radiator overflow tube that runs from the radiator filler neck to the factory catch can on the fan shroud. The factory never put a clamp in that position.
