I guess I've just been sneaking up on the setup trying to see how the car reacts.

There also seems to be some discrepancy on opinions of what works better to keep the front end down, limiters vs tightening rebound.

Just like a stocker, I've got to be careful on how the front end is setup. If I go too far, it won't transfer weight and it'll blow the DOT Drag Radials off, and too loose and it'll go for the bumper. It's a fine balancing act and after flattening the headers twice last fall, I'm taking baby steps to get the front end under control.

With a 2.48 1st gear th400, 6000 stall 8" converter, 4.33 gear with a 27 3/4" diameter radial tire, it leaves pretty hard for what it is.
