Well chipping away but still struggling with climbing the ring gear. Got rid of the steel rear bumper. Total weight with brackets was 70lb, used a 68-73 glass nova rear bumper, don’t tell anyone. Made this pass and then it rained unfortunately. Pedaled twice to keep the wheelie down but still managed a PB 60’ 330 and 1/8. Would have been a 5.0x if it would’ve stayed down. We will get it there. Also needs a touch more preload in the left caltrac bar

Also when you make a tube or "normal" front end and get rid of all that transverse T bars, Go a little heavy on the front springs to calm down all that stored energy and pitch rotation. Also when taking weight off the front , IF you can, slide the engine forward an inch or so, youll be amazed at what it does for the bias without adding weight to the car.
Good luck, you have a TON of potential in this combo
