What?
I do not recall Chris mentioning in any of his adds that he had paper on the car.
Dang it! Would love to see that thing terrorizing public streets...

The motor plate in the car has the engine tilted 3 degrees rearward (with lots of weight missing on the front end). Is this a good starting point or should I shoot for 5 degrees?

That is a very good point Ron. I'll measure the pinion angle at the differential yoke and report back.

Anybody have an opinion on how the pinion angle should be set in a car with ladder bars and coil overs?

Now on to the next mock up hurdle. The Enderle tunnel ram linkage does not quite fit my Indy manifold. The spacer that bolts to the center intake bolts leaves the throttle pivot too far inboard. I think the easiest way to handle this is move the bracket out and ditch the spacer. I'll let the pictures illustrate.

For your engine placement point the C/L of the engine
trans right at the pinion so its all in line with
zero pinion at this time... then roll the pinion
down 2* for your ladder bar.... I use a laser pointer
in a block that mounts into the rear main but that
wouldnt help you out... I need to make one up that
mounts on the trans trailshaft so it would show you
where its at on the pinion
