yeah man that looks killer already. nice to get rid of that mystery rattling too!

Thanks Scott, we may need to talk subframes down the road here. The 245's look like pizza cutters on the front now.

No problem, I am no expert by any means. But I had to weigh a few decisions which is alot different on a finished running painted car.

I think the biggest improvements will be grip from the R-compound tires and ride quality with the 4-link.

Thanks Steve, always loved your car. Glad to have joined club Fikse :lol:

Lol Mike, for those that don't know Mike helped me do alot of work on the car like installing the motor/trans and do the heads/intake swap on the motor. Mike you know me quite well and I will try my best to roast the 335's in 2nd gear. But I'm eyeing Steve Rupp's 460 RHS stroker motor in the future. I'm done with power adders, 720 hp NA is where it's at. :_paranoid

Thanks Payton, which reminds me. Let's see some updates on your mini-tub??

Thanks Jay, for your inspiration. For posting pics of your badass '69 and helping me decide on the wheels. And for all your help checking backspacing on the wheels like a million times :lol: Your update threads are some of my favorites, so please keep us posted. :thumbsup:

Thanks Nick.

Thanks for the suggestions Ryan. The noise was driving me insane. Luckily I now have a rebuilt stage II T56 tranny that I didn't really need. :lol:

Thanks Jay. Keep us posted on your wifes car build :D

Thanks, and hey I really like your wheels too :thumbsup:

Lol, you know me too well Chris. First thing I thought of when I saw the pics was: the ass end is waaaay too high. Gotta slam that thing and tuck the rubber. Aka Orion Camaro. I've already told Bill to do it. :lol:

I'll hit up Nick L and see if he wants to re-feature it now :lol: He'll probably tell me to pound sand :lol:

Thanks Tony, one day I'll make it down to that Goodguys Puyalip show to meet you clowns :unibrow:

Thanks Flash. Like I said, real happy that issue was figured out. It drove me insane. :yes:

Ryan, The updates look great. I would like to check out the car one day the shop you have it at is only 10 minutes from me.

No Problem, it's only going to be there maybe 1 more week. So you better talk to Bill or visit his shop.

new wheels look killer ryan!
i also said the same thing in my head right when i saw the pics " needs to be back down to the old height asap" lol

Nothing 10 minutes and a little elbow grease won't fix.

I guess there will be grease on Bill's elbows not mine. :_paranoid

Well Bill adjusted the height, says this is as low as it can go without the suspension binding. The springs still need to settle. They are 175 lb springs. Have to say I'm a little disappointed, I wanted the rear to sit lower than this but hoping once it settles it will? Any ideas or thoughts are welcome.

What components of the suspension binding is he refering to?

I agree the rear is a little high, is compouned by the front being a little low?My car is about .75-1" high in the rear...........I can definitely relate to the dissatisfaction.

Cannon Racecraft should be able to make custom springs if coil bind is the part of the issue. http://www.cannonracecraft.com/ if the shock length/travel will accept it.

Hopefully it's not linkage geometry.
