6 degreas neg. on pinion both pads then sometines perload right front pin in hanger.
Also on some cars would relocate second or third leaf in right spring, or even add a stronger leaf somewere in the right side.
Once ladder and four link got in the mix and we were unhooking the springs from the rear it was a hole new ball game.
Never used a pinion snubber on any cars ,stock or super stock.

Jack, did you operate the Amoco across from the fire station in Dundalk?
If so, do you remember working on this 340 Duster?

Sorry have 76 years of memorys to sift through. Worked on so many cars through the years it's hard to remember. But if you call and we talk i'm sure it will come back....jack

Re: Anyone remember Jack Arnew ???
 

Will try to call tomorrow. A little hint on the past. You had just picked up the S&M Duster and teased me on a trade. They were parked side by side in the bays when you did some work on the TQ and straightened a couple tubes on the Hookers I bent back on a high man hole cover.

Friday ~ September 4, 1970

75-80 Drag-A-Way ~ Monrovia, Maryland

Jack Arnew in his 'Car Center' Pro/Stock 1968 Barracuda was the
Top Qualifier with a 10.01 @ 134.32 MPH.

Vernon Rowley in his 1970 Pro/Stock Duster was right there, with
a 10.10 @ 134.93 MPH.

In 2nd Round Eliminations, Jack suffered a mishap, as his 'Fire Bottle'
went off a short distance from the starting line, causing Jack to
shut it down.

Paul,how in god's name did you come up with that? I remember that night. What a shock when that went off.

Re: Anyone remember Jack Arnew ???
 

Jack,

My friends father raced at 75-80 Drag-A-Way that Friday Night, and

My friend dug up the Film Tape, and he watched it and told me about

Did you work on a 67 Camaro for Joe Scott in the 70's

Re: Anyone remember Jack Arnew ???
 

Sure did a few times. Became good friends, he was good and very hard racer. Have not seen him for a few years . Hope he is still around and in good health.
