You can put a 2" paddle in there with some 8 tooth drivers
Run you're sled, not your mouth.

To answer you question about stock drivers, 1.5" is max.
2000 Flll800 with Tempaflow.
05 SC-3 136" suspention with Hygear C-46 shocks.
1.5" fully clipped Doo track.
MXZ HPG racing shocks up front on precision ski's.
Clutched and geared by Joey.
Pitched the triple pipes for the single, awsome corner/corner power!
One of a kind, "Rotax Electronic Reverse", oh ya baby!

Somone enlighten me on this driver change thing please. If u change from 9 tooth to 8 tooth do u have to worry about losing/gaining speed and re-gearing? Thinking about doing this for more clearence on my Z. 1in track now with 1.175 in or so studs and always hitting

Going to 8 tooth is like dropping 2 teeth in chaincase. Yes you will lose some top end. But you will have lots of room

I had 8 tooth 2.52 pitch introvert drivers and a 2" track on one of my last Mach's. :righton

Let's face it...most of the stuff in the lounge is useless banter by the same ten or so people.
