after my disappointing track day (not really) 13.7 @ 103 i found myself at a cross road. I had a few issues like no bottle heater, bald 255/60 street tires, column shifter, and after calculations a instant center 540" behind the car. So what's a fella to do? leave it be or dump some $$$ into it? So i did some thinking and spent some money..... Picked up this.... pro-matic 2 2 of these deals....275/60's this.....bottle heater pressure switch.. and this will fix my i/c issues ..... this because im lazy... also a 5.3 short block. did i make the right desicion?

When you want use the code you have to be in HTML not Visual. the tab is at the top right. Also you can't do it in Quick post.

The Baseline Suspensions calculator has plotted YOUR geometry below
.The*AntiSquat*value is*97.68%
Instant Center Lenth:*43.45"
Instant Center Height:*8.81"



 

Im pretty sure I have a dead spot in my carb. This should help find it.

a couple of picts...








well the suspension stuff / new tires did its job. I can no longer do a burnout on dry pavement. :(

I have to hook the wideband back up and make sure the carb is on then it will be time to flip the switch .
