275# front springs, set with r shocks on #2 with travel limiters set to 2.5".

Rear shocks are set 50/50 rate.

Rear springs 150#

My instant center is 48" x 5" off the ground.

Rear fender is 26.75" off the ground with a 29" tire.

Front is 3/4" lower than the rear.

Weight dist is 52/48.

I run a manual, since you have an auto I would recommend your instant center a little higher, maybe 6-7" off the ground to start.

Are you talking ORSCA EZ street competition? Hate to burst your bubble, but I dont think 950 hp is going to cut it in that class.

i know i wont run with them just my local tracks i think the track record around here is like 5.49 in the 1/8 and i may put down more power then then 950 hp i just know that dyno number will hurt your fellings i allways went to the track before i went to te dyno

whats the combo? you plan on spraying 300-500? at what race weight? and for that much nitrous you'll want to tighten up the converter

well i got the motor from a guy who had it in a rail that did that dirt track 300 ft racing but the motor is a 496 with manly aluminum rods 15.1.1 manley pistons it had stock heads that had port work done to it i took them off and had them flowed and only did 217 and 353 at 750 lift so i am getting rid of them im gonna get some them bmf heads with the 350 intake runners thet flow like 420 the cam is solid roller but im gonna get a cam to match the heads maybe with 112 to 114 lsa and its got a 1250 quick fuel carb crank trigger ign with 7al2 box the weight was 3240 with me in when i had a small block and ive took alot more weight out to make up for the bigblock because every think in my car did work with the small block so i hope for 3250-3300 the transmission is a jw performance glide with a hughes 5000 stall and i do have a tighter stall if i need to use it and and im gonna try to spray at least 250 and might get another stage but on suspension stuff i am all ears to u and brady after i seen what yall did on drag radials i u two guys

About as fast as I can push it in and out of the garage, 8-10 seconds at 1-2 mph?

I was just giving you an example of what I had mine is under construction still, I will one day when someone drops a bag of money on my door step run a procharger with a 15x12 with a 31 or 30x11, and make 800-900 hp on pump gas, then run it on race gas and add some boost and rip some passes at the track. It's my ultimate quest for a kick *** fun street / strip car.

Do you have any photos yet?

If you're asking about the strut front suspension, I don't have any digitals. The car is getting a 25.5 now, so I was just going to wait until a little more is done and post a bunch of pics.
