Mustang 3-link suspension

Thanks for providing this information. I wondered what the "backstory" was with Calvert's car being an accepted modification.

Now I'm curious? Do they have to put the stock floor back in when converting to Calvert's design?

I'm not sure. Calvert's car and Bo's car both had factory back seats.

The Skillman car and Hodge car both started as the Ford 4-link, but both are going to be Factory Showdown cars. I am betting NHRA let them put the upper pickup in the correct spot but allowed the modified seat pan for Showdown.

I almost forgot, Chris Holbrook's car that he won Indy Showdown with in 2016 was also a 3-link. That car probably should have been the first 7 second Stocker but it took a hp hit before he put down the number. He sold it to Joe Welsh and I'm not sure what's going on with it now.

Seriously Jesse, write a book. You are a wealth of knowledge on the whole Cobra Jet program. Thanks for sharing!

Joe Welch was testing with it in Bradenton last weekend.
