I don't mean to be rude but it kinda looks like it still has a lot of lean, have you thought about lowering the center of gravity (thecar) or getting harder shocks? Just a suggestion, anyway, your car gives me the hots.

Rick, I have had afcos on the front for 6 years now. I like them. Those new pics are showing the take up springs I added so that I could got to a much stiffer front spring without building droop limiters. I took out the TCI shocks out of the rear 2 races ago and added the ridetech SA. TCI is rebuilding the shocks and I will be using them as a backup or on another project.

I agree. I raised the rear roll center to shorten the roll couple and stiffen up the rear of the car to reduce body roll. I installed a stiffer front sway bar and stiffer front springs. and I lowered the car 1" in the front and .5" in the back. This all helped...

Now I will be lowering the rear roll center and increasing the rear spring rate. and adding power steering.
