RE:Squat & leak....
By John Saxon - 01/30/2004 3:05:59 AM; IP 198.81.26.103
McQ of all people knows how much I hate to admit this but those late 60's early 70's GM A-bodies with the big inch mills when properly prepared ran way harder than most people would expect.Must have something to do with chassis design.My personal experience was with a 70 Olds W-30 442 that had the 455 blueprinted by Mondello back in late 70's.The car looked like it just had rolled off showroom floor down to the Quadrajunk carb it did have headers,and the guy had done all the non-visible chassis tuning tricks such as massaged control arm bushings and drag shocks painted to look stock.But it definitely didn't look like the 11.90 car that it was.My one and only stint behind the wheel on the street with Goodrich radials gave me a view of blue sky over the front of the hood.I was astounded at how well the car hooked up for what was basically a street car.It wouldn't pull the front wheels with the street tires but between the rear end squat and the front end lift there was no seeing what was in front of you.
This thread, so far...
