    Historic's suspension set up.

    Consider this... Up Front - Shelby Drop - old school and proven 1 1/8" Front Sway Bar - old school and proven Front coils cut to drop front end 2 1/2" - Holy smokes, what spring rate do we find ourselves at now? Poly everywhere - How about those strut rods? On a flat track would...

    Historic's suspension set up.

    Maybe you need to do a little research... :rolleyes: you could start by looking at his finishes (last, 2nd to last, 4th in a field of 4, etc.) I'll give him credit for fielding a car in a VERY challenging class (but uh circle track? not exactly how I would describe AIX). He just told you to...

    Wilwood vs. SSBC

    And Rod & Custom (mainly known for the M2 kit) also sells a $300 conversion kit that a number of people like.

    Wilwood vs. SSBC

    Wilwood is more of a racing setup, they are lightweight and in all honesty I don't think their hubs are as cut out for the street (pot hole abuse etc). SSBC are a solid street setup. Companies like Aerospace Components etc. are just Wilwood knockoffs. Baer is for show and go (well maybe more...

    Historic's suspension set up.

    Thanks, this is EXACTLY what I wanted him to do, expose himself. I tell ya, if you are really about the budget... bet I could build that Fox rocket ship for less than the early fastback. :owned: Just be careful guys on whose line you are buying. I don't want to over-generalize but the...

    Historic's suspension set up.

    Ask about this guy over on cornercarvers.com. Or any other board. Unfortunately he's taking some of the younger guys here for a ride. Track tech and street tech are two entirely different things. A LOT HAS CHANGED IN 40 YEARS ... Granada technology is how old at this point? I'll offer...

    Historic's suspension set up.

    Yeah, where can I pick up some of those composites... probably would cost more than a $25 set of lowering blocks, we were talking budget right? :rlaugh: I'm sure historic has F-16 lowering blocks :shrug: :shrug: I love stangnet tech :hail2:

    Historic's suspension set up.

    Probably would not be too safe though for the McDonalds drive thru circuit with all the pot holes etc. :notnice:

    http://www.americaniron-east.com/points.shtml What is the competition doing differently? Is it skill only? You're consistently 10 seconds or more off the lead car.

    TCP vs Flaming River

    Tri Ys are working and some shorties. Another fix is in the works too. The original TCP R&P did not clear headers either. It takes some time to meet all the variations.

    TCP vs Flaming River

    I'm going to adapt my Baer bumpsteer kit to the FR setup once FR finally ships my end adapters. That way I can dial it all in. Still having issues with header clearance. I'm updating the VMF though as I make progress. I can't post to so many boards... especially ones where...
