Short wheel base has some tendencies to rotate a little quicker while the longer wheel base will be a little more stable at high speeds. You will probably find the 108 feels better on short bullrings and the 110 or more is better suites for 1/2 mile tracks.

Stock car driver is right, assuming that you lengthen the rear bars to lengthen the wheelbase. That is the wrong way to do it. It will cause a lot of clearance problems with springs, shocks, fuel cell, etc. To do it the right way, you would have to cut the front clip off and slide it forward 2" leaving the engine in the same place ( 72" from center of axle tube to back of engine).
