I would at least do that and install a set of sub-frame connectors. Maybe a bolt in 6 point roll bar for safety. I kno...

Re: 1970 Cuda 4 speed 60 ft problem

Hi Raffaele, Nice car....always liked those Cuda's. I can't see any reason why your car shouldn't be in the 10's?

Re: 1970 Cuda 4 speed 60 ft problem

Ooops now i saw the videos...wow thats a handfull. I would say the car has easy 10 sec potential. But if thats at a Air Strip...good luck, it will never hook like it should.
