Okay here's what I got a 70 nova back half with ladder bar's and coil over's high horse power nitrous ,auto with brake had a 5800 convertor now 4800 10.5 tire has run 8.65 with a 1.30 to 1.40+ 60 but should be about a 8.10 now it's 3320 lbs with about 45% on the rear, what should the 60 be? I thought a 1.20 to 1.25 would be about right, started to scale it and the weight's where "OFF" to me
904 LF 925 RF
856 LR 646 RR had 170 spring's found one bad shorter than the other and a bent shock so we put a new shock and new coils 175 lbs
now we have
930 LF 901 RF
852 LR 635 RR
now we noticed that the right ladder bar seem's to be pulling down the right rear is this right ?
do I need to put a spacer on the LF spring t get weight on the RR?
is the spring rate right?
should the spring's be set at a even height?
should the rear weight's be even ?
we found that puting preload (making longer ) the right lader bar put weight on the RR but put most on the LF, I cranked the hell out of the right bar for preload and got the weight's within a 100lbs on the back tire's but the car sat about 5 inch's in ride height different from left to right
what angle should the ladder bar's be at level or down 4- 6 degrees and what doe's what ? is down more aggressive ?
what should the pinion angle be 2- 4 degrees ?
I need help real bad can anyone give answers, or is anyone going to Milan friday we will have scales with us, HELP!
