Will 20x10x10 8 paddle edges be enough for a 460 stroker 13:1 piston, big valves,porting, and a carb and the rest of the good stuff.

should be sweet, I've heard too many paddles can actually give you less traction. having less paddles forces each paddle to move more sand (in theory) so should provide more bite than (say) 10 paddles.

If I were you I would go with a straight paddle rather then a "V" style. They seem to hook up better but your sizing should be perrrrrrrrrrrfect

I thought about getting haulers if i gonna be doing more drag racing. But i figured the extramly modified banshees would still probbly walk all over me. And i used some sand devils with my stock motor last year and i wasnt to impressed with the handling.

I have a stock engine with a Yoshi pipe and a K&n Jet kit and a 14 tooth sprocket up front and I eat every stock 400 at the dunes that are running 8 paddle tires. THe Raptors are right even with me. I didn't think it would pull them great but it proved me wrong. I guess I shouldn't ever underestimate the 400ex.
