well our best option is to keep weight as close to the cg as possible as well as as much of it below the axle/hub centerline as we can.
to this point much like the original car we are looking at the lower tubular chassis as our rear cooling system plumbing.
all of this plus the simplest...
so the only real solution to this other than a V drive/live axle is a stiff mcpherson
crud
well i could see laying back the rear LCA/strut with more caster to give us a little bit of a hand...but as you said the side effects on handling might not be worth it for the small gain...
at this...
well crap.
the motor/trans are solid mounted via motor plates and i was figuring that the Tq at the hub would be ~1/3rd so i was hoping i could use that tq to counter the front rise.
thing is the Turbo regal does distort the front struts, we kill upper mounts and score the hell out of the front...
i have learned a few things from here over the years, probably a little out of left field but here it goes. (primary question in bold)
some of you may remember Hurst built several exhibition cars, one of these was the 66/67 twin drivetrain Hurst "Hairy" Olds 442 "4-4-too much"
using two 500+...
