Weight and placement are at the front of the agenda, but like the suspension geometry, I am limited by commitment (t & $)
I remember now how we got to 3 points. We had the car on 4 points, were checking engine level, and noticed one of the points was not touching. We tried to ratchet and it moved the force to the other three but we could not close the gap. I don't know why I was surprised, it is exactly what should have happened. Once demonstrated we set the steering as the primary critical feature and went to 3 points.
Dan - great point on the joints.
Chas - w/ respect to the joints - shim the pumpkin down - LOL
Dan - an ERA chassis with this weight does make me smile. We are in Shelby territory with a real suspension and another 100 hp.
Not sure we have enough trans, but for now
We still need some water and some more
oil for the accusump, but there is some give back in the wheels, drive shaft, & front calipers.
