Truck fixed Water seperator cracked wouldn't hold pressure and brought back to my house while I was out of town Thanks to Ratman and Jack Schmitt Chevy .
The hold my beer team minus Me thrashed and got the car finished Wed nite had to have Bickle bend a bar because the Comp engineering crossmember was to wide at bend Pie built mine in 1986 and frame rails are 24 wide . Thanks to Bob ,Justin ,Ron ,Mark. Now we still don't know about popping never got down track with prosystems 1050 dom . Maybe tonite . Also 1st hit on ladder bar setup could be interesting .

Want me to drag my scales over? May help get it set up, of course with a ladder bar car you really don't need the scales if you know how to do.

Update Update!! I know the pop is gone, Watching your car leave after repairing the ladder bar issues, I watched it leave 2 x. Spinning . It's easy fix , little time to set that chassie, Do not overcomplicate it , Angel gauge , use it

You get it Don, Be tedious , check everything, ride height, front rear , simulate drivers weight, Jmo ( lol.),, ladder bar should be center hole to start off , , no pre load, 2-5 deg pinion angle, 2 deg uphill on bars, zero preload. Make sure rear is square with chassie . Lot of stuff to check, but do not overthink it , Or not check it either, Set front end height, travel, any binding.first.

Well no pop last weekend so really could have been Dist have new billet MSD now . fuel pressure seems steady at 8lbs. NGKs 8 were in last week . Not sure on the 1050 prosystems Dom I think it made car lazy off line . Put in new torsion bars Sat.No spring left in them adjusters were cranked all the way up . I got my C&S 950 back rebuilt from them its back on. Reset ladder bars might need to tweak after some driving and couple pass's hopefully Wed .
