    Roller spring perch users

    One set I know of has over 50K of street miles on them so they do last a good long time. They made a big change in our cars. I put a set in my wifes '61 Ranchero and she loved it. John

    This is the best stance i've ever seen on a 68/68 mustang

    Our '65 coup soon after we got it with a 1" drop on stock upper arms, cut front coils, bone stock rear leafs with poly bushings and a shackle kit. No roller parts, Koni's and fat sway bars. 225/60/14's up front and 245/60/14's out back on real Minilite 14X7 wheels. It drove great, still does. I...

    Spring perches: Roller vs Brass

    I had the same question when I made my first set. That's why I have been testing roller bearing perches for the past two years on street cars, road racers and drag racers. The oldest set on the street has 30K+ miles on them. Some of the road racers are in thier second season with no problems...

    x-pipe w/muffs VS. Shelby style side exhaust

    There is a sound limit at Laguna Seca, 90db @ 50' from the tracks edge. That's quiet. A new Mustang won't pass sound at Laguna. This is what it looks like now. We are just under the 90db limit with this set up. The car has full tail pipes. John

    x-pipe w/muffs VS. Shelby style side exhaust

    The hot set up I have read about is to have a 11" to 14" piece of pipe coming off of the header and dump into one large chamber, then over the axle and out the back or out the side. The chamber should be the same cubic inches as the motor and it can be almost any shape, so it would be a custom...

    Opentracker's UCA mod

    Well, we all have our own place on earth. I guess mine is in front of a welder. Reading HTML looks easy while other people are doing it, but it's not easy for me. I'm learning though. I wish I could weld my web site together. They are a matched set of arms. I have not ran these on the track...

    Opentracker's UCA mod

    Thanks DB, I had forgot about that thread. And thank you again for hosting info. and photos about my Mods. Now that I have a web site, I should be able to do some myself. IF I can figure the HTML thing out. Wow! that is a lot of work. John

    Opentracker's UCA mod

    I did an upper arm mod post a while back but it got lost with the server crash we had. About 6 months of threads got lost if I remember right. I plan on doing another one when I have the time to take some good photos and do a nice write up. There is some info. here. I'll be glad to help by...

    Sorry, my mistake, we use the early three piece mounts. Looks like one of those holes. John

    ANOTHER coil-over kit -- Ron Morris Performance

    Damn, that is a lot of money for what you get, sorry but I don't see the value in that. The change from a stock suspension to a roller suspension is huge, plenty IMO for a street car or part time track car. The spindle doesn't care what it's bolted too, if it moves the right way, the car will...

    Yea! - That Falcon is what I like. My next project is a '65 Ranchero. The car is getting a major weight loss plan, it should come in around 2400lbs with 400hp. My daily driver is a '64 Falcon Sprint. That is one sweet looking car. Mustangs are cool too. John

    Negative Wedge Camber Kit

    The upper arm will hit the bump stop before the ball joint comes into bind with a 1" drop, no matter what kind of spring or how low the car is. No worries! John
