Lowering the rear
Lowering the rear I have soft Global West rear springs in the rear, I removed the rear bumper support and it raised the rear up over 1/2 inch.
I have a set of Global West rear springs(shorter) and matching height adjusters for the rear.
I want to put it back where it was and go even further, I want the top of the rear tire just under the fender lip.
How will this affect how the car hooks? Theory says it should help the car hook.
Best 60ft so far on drag radials is a 1.51, runs low 1.50's pretty consistent.
ANy input appreciated.

Why not just get some coil over springs for the rear?
Lowering the car will lower the intersection point, it will lower the front of the LCA hole and that's why you see the 3 hole or even more 4 or 5 hole relocation kits, as long as you relocate the LCA to the angle it needs to be at it should hook fine.

I already have the Global West rear height adjusters.
Will lower it this weekend and re-center the tire.

Depending on the size tire you run the lower hole might not be low enough, remember you're tucking the tire and the taller the tire is and the more you lower the car the lower you have to drop the back of the LCA to get the intersection point back where it was.
If you remember the photo madman had a while back of that custom rear end, you can see how low those guys drop the LCA holes in the back, some of those guys have 4,5,6 holes so you're talking an additional 1-3" lower than the standard LCA 3 hole relocation brackets.
