Pull the rear tires forward of stock location so the 27" tires wont rub wen they expand at the track.

Is that A Stupid Idea? And Why?

its what they are for so you can center the tires i did mine just remember if they are not 100% the same you will screw the alignment

You will have to tweek your geometry with a 9" rear and 27" tires.

i suppose. the rear is sitting at stock location to a 7.5 so even if i had the 27's on a 7.5 i think i would have the same issue. right?

Remember John has a 12 bolt and you have a 9" in your car. Not much but there may be some differences.

You might. I can imagine when you're throwing all the torque from that monster at the rear that your suspension preload is quite high.
