I traded my NOVA last weekend for a more of a street cruiser that I can race and still run a 10 second 1/4 mile.

Here it is, I have some cleaning to do and a cam change to make but it will be fun

Hey Phil... It's just Cal-Vert's lightest spring & 1" drop block, sliders and upper hole in the front - you already got the same mounts and stuff. With it that low it won't hit the tire as hard, lowers the IC point basically... Lower center of gravity and all that. I don't know that it's t...

I had a few questions after readi...

I would like to hear from all you Stock Type Suspension people out there as to what launch method you use and what RPM you launch your cars.

So I guess I say all that to say Joh...
