well Just did rear suspension upgrades and set up. Was hoping to hit track tonite to test but doesnt look like Mother Nature gonna agree with my plan. Not gonna do much else to the Coyote for now. Got the GTO finally back on the lift installing the Engine and drivetrain. Had to do alittle firewall Mods. Just finished all the welding and grinding Letting the Paint dry, after lunch gonna try and get engine and trans in today still. Been along time since this cars been running. Time to give it Priority!!!

Rear suspension Mods Just done. Upper and Lower BMR adjustable control arms and relocation brackets and Driveshaft safety loop. Strang Rear adjustable shocks.
As for the GTO it's a 1967. It a full custom tube chassis race car.

well went up to DaGrove last night to do some testing 12.9's best i could get with a 2.0 60 ft. think track being cold had something to do with 60 ft lots of guys had launch trouble. kept playing with tire pressure and launch RPM. If i drop TP down below 24 lbs would get bad wheel hop. 26-28 psi at a 2k launch seemed to work best last nite. Still not what I'm looking for gonna adj. rear suspension some and maybe test again Tues. nite. Really feel 1.7-1.8s in doable and should be consistant on stockers. Looking forward to Dr's sometime soon. ;-)
