does anyone know how big of a tire you can fit on a 1987 buick regal without cutting too much of the fender lip out? I also have a 454 2 bolt main block i'll be putting together for it sometime here in the future any tips on how to get 550-600 hp out of it would be great.

i plan to make it a 496. it should hopefully have as follows:

10.5:1 comp on pump gas
full roller valvetrain w/girdle for the rockers
ARP hardware
forged bottom end
single plane intake w/850 speed demon
internal balance
MSD ignition
just to name a few things
