Well it sounds like it was pretty damn simple.

Brag some more. That's one thing you've proven that you can do well.

Meanwhile, show us your car no mind another GM A body that has gone 1.28 60 foot with a bolt on suspenion, using all and nothing but the factory mounting points, nothing welded and no anti roll bar, launching off the footbrake and weighing 3900 lbs.:p

The Proof is in the Performance!

Brag some more. That's something that you've actually proven to be good at.

it ain't bragging if you can back it up and your reply is typical of those that can't achieve the same!:p

Meanwhile, the op PM me for help last week and again pm me moments ago. He knows who to ask advice of when the topic is the GM A body suspension and how to get these cars to work better than most. ;)

Matter of fact, a friend and accomplished Divison 1 stock and super stock racer who on occasion posts here just called me to ask the same for a Chevelle he's setting up for stock eliminator.

"It ain't bragging if you can back it up". I think I've seen high school kids with that saying on their T-shirt.

Mr. Bigley may be a pain in the behind, nevertheless, the fact is that Alf Weibe's suspension system for GM A-Bodies does work and can make them hook even in a car wash.

Re: GM A Body Drive Line Angles
 
yes it does and there is no better bolt on suspension for these cars bar none but this thread ain't about Alf's suspension nor Mr. Bigley, it's about pinion angle, nothing more to which I informed the op how to correctly check it, calculate it and set it.

Well Ed if you would like, can you copy and paste me the info please.
Ed does know these cars well.
Too bad his car never ran a high horsepower stocker motor n trans like a 396/375 or 427/425 too see it class race. It could've.
I was at Cecil this past weekend and saw Katie Sepaniks car movin nice like never before.
Square and quick launches.
Got that Velle down pat now like The White GS Lenny Williams

Thanks for speaking ther truth chris. Too much time and money to race for peanuts, beg for contingency money and be treated like sh_t by the nhra for me to race stock/super stock though I did entertain for a while last year buying a copo camaro. Instead I'm using the coin to buy/build a top shelf dragster for my son to bracket race. Check your pm.
