Clanton , it looks similar to my satellite on launch . You may have to tighten up the rear extension some more . How much front end lift is available ? Getting the best front rise may be difficult with the weight of the blower . Most people watching mine say it looks like the whole car lifts vertically then leaves

I have stock rear shackles and XHD springs . The Caltrac will force the separation . As long as you are not spinning should be ok . Front travel @ 5" should be fine . Picture does not show a lot of lift at front , but this could be like I said the extra weight on front . Could even be your shocks - I have QA1 single adjust on front , Rancho 9 way on rear . Rear set 1 click off full tight extension , front to full loose .Oh I also removed a couple of spring clamps on the rear half as well, similar to how superstock springs are

The problem I had was in the shifter linkage and that changes a lot of things like I can move my seat back some and I will be able to reach the new shifter moved back 2".I have things to do over winter now.The shifter is over due. Man, I feel for ya and know you`ve been fighting that car for a while now and hopefully you can get it together. I agree about the shackles in the rear and limiting separation and getting as much front end transfer as possible being it`s very nose heavy. Good luck man........

love the car, but how come you have it setting so high up? I can lower the front but the back is for tire clearance.[stock wheel well w/10.5x29.5 tire]
