I have those parts on the front of my car (Alfs). I have zero rise at 2500-2600 RPM. With a tighter ATI 5300 flash I did have lift at a much lower RPM, infact I think it was around 1800 RPM.

what parts, do tell us and FYI, my converter was the tighest ATI could build, flashing 53-5400 behind my 468 with ZERO front end rise at any RPM.

My Chevelle never had a rise problem after I put the A1 converter in it. Just had parts I modified myself. Toe out? Bump steer correction is something I assumed everybody did to any car. Not rocket science.

ATI's tightest 8 inch converter flashes 5200-5300 behind my 10.5 compression, .560 lift flattappet 467 in a 27.80 baro. Weibe parts on the front of my car include: ball joint spacers, upper A arm bars/shafts.

now claim you "have those parts" on the front of your car.

I was refering tp Alfs rear suspension, Ive done better with the TRRC rear suspension. I've always run Alfs front end parts from day one. Look for mid 1.2s from my Chevelle this year, on a 9 inch tire.

save you claims, lies and half truths for the naive and easily impressed.

BTW, Alf's front end kit does not include ball joint "spacers"
