Re: N/A Small Block Chevy in 2600lb Car...
Oh you could go crazy on that. Saw somebody made 1100 hp on a SB2 small block the other day (not 100% on that number) but it was very impressive. It's more a question on how much money does he want to spend? Hi John!!! I hope everything is running well with you... :thumb: I've been busy actually un...

Re: Brazilian Racing.....

Re: Brazilian Racing.....
try to reduce that and try to keep it to a 1/2 or less Stiffening the rear shocks or trying a stiffer spring?? About the shocks, we tested a lot of set ups and the body's movement and tire slipping never changed as well... :scratch: My idea still is to use 125lbs on the rear springs...now it's 150l...

Re: Brazilian Racing.....
Jeff, I started with a 80lb spring in my car and ended up with a 125lb spring in it now and still need to do some more testing..

Re: Brazilian Racing.....
Im not to up on ladder bar but with a 4 link you don't want the chassis to move to much on the hit...I like less than a 1/2 inch of separation at the hit and less than a 1/2 sec into the run the back is under the ride height line for the rest of the run.. I'm with you completely!!! That one picture...
