Looking great. Glad to see you got it moving under its own power this past weekend. Love to hear what you found with the 7530 box. Cant wait to hear how things go at the track. Best of luck!! Oh yeah mine weighed 3470 with me in it, all steel(except bumbers and hood), all working glass, dana 8.50 MS cage and full interior. Im not exactly the smallest guy either smile

Thanks again. I tried swapping the polarity and it wouldn't even try to fire, back it went. Once i was able to get into programming...I found nothing (that I would recognize) which would retard the timing UNDER 800 rpm. So i just bumped it forward about 10? deg on the pick-up so i could take it around. I did readjust all RPM limits and i took out the 'start retard' which was only 8* also it looked like it had some downtrack/run retards on a graph (dots) that were about 8* so i moved the dots to 0. I havent checked it since those changes, maybe i did find something? Thanks again Tony! I acually weigh 205 so I'm starting to think it'll be close to where you are because the 4link backhalf is 2x3 and all related junk that i prob wouldnt need if it were ladder-bar. It's gotta be 75lbs heavier that a tube back ladder-bar. I don't think I'll be able to scale it before I do test and it kinda is what it is for now. I really would be curious to know how aggressive i can go anti-squat on this set-up. It's sitting at about 37" and 11"!!! showing 179% antisquat. If i move the lower bar up at the axle it'll put it at 41" and 10" with a.s. being 146%...anyone?

Gotta start somewhere with the 4 link. A thousand options and only a few are right for your car smile I would think thats a bit high and short but would need alot more info really, like HP, SLR, Weight, ride Ht, crank centerline, bar spread blah blah blah Also depends on your goal with the car, ride the bars for the fans or get down the track.

It isnt much lower than a typical BB A-body in the front with a 26" tire so, 12"? It has about 1* rake towards the front. the cam c/l is about 18/ SLR IS 8.75/ HP750/ weight w/dr. 3000/ bar spread is about 10.5 rear and 6 front. There is a pretty quick lower bar change I will make and that'll get me 46" and 10". Which shows a 131 a.s. I'd like to get down the track fast with minor drama.

Thanks again guys! I had it out last night to shake out any obvious bugs in an undisclosed area laugh with help from Gdemon, Dartin and my wife Michelle and thanks to Al for taking a quick tech call as well. There are a couple vids on Facebook. It seems to be working pretty well! I never drove anything this quick but, I felt pretty comfortable pretty quickly.

The first vid was my second try. This is my first couldn't get the transbrake working this first among other 'new-guy' bugs.
