Put some pinion angle in the rear. I had mine down on my old Duster about 5 degrees( with S/S springs) and the thing hooked on ice.
Made a huge, huge difference just adding that shim.
What in the world does pinion angle have to do with making the car hook?
Absolutely nothing........Some old timers would say pinion angle helps it "throw" the pinion more at the hit. None of it's true
I recall reading some stuff in "The Big Car Magazines" where some street racers (early fastest street car types) talked about adding pinion angle to soften the hit off the line. Never sounded right to me, but they were running way faster than me.
