<<<< NEW BEST >>>>
DROVE the car to Moroso Motorsports Park Sunday for their Hot Rod Sunday Show. The weather was great, cool and sunny with a little bit of a head wind. I can't remember the last time I was up there and had to wear long sleeves. It was basicly a T&T all day. Well here are the numbers:
60' ... 1.571
330 ... 4.674
1/8 ... 7.282
MPH ... 93.75
1000 ... 9.575
1/4 ... 11.520
MPH ... 113 .49
Naturally Asperated..... No Computer.... Just "old school" Horsepwer :D

Re: <<<< NEW BEST >>>> (TeenagerWith74Vette)
Teenager, Yes it is. I have Lakewood solid u-joints, 4.11 10 bolt GM Corvette rear, off-set trailing arms and GM half shafts. Believe it or not but the largest daimeter half shafts available from GM are from a '76 Vette with an auto trans.. I have welded spacers between the rubber stop that mount to the frame above the trailing arm. Off the line the car would squat too much and alter the geometry of the half shafts and "POP" there goes another half shaft. But not any more. :thumbs:

Re: <<<< NEW BEST >>>> (lotahp)
How big of a tire have you stuffed wit your offset trailing arms.
I'm going to try and fit some 28 x 10.5s under the car. I'm currently running 26 x 10s. I still have factory trailing arms, but it looks like the possible contact point is on the frame. What do ya think?
Thanks man,
Jay
