You sir have found the speed secrets. Good luck and looking forward to seeing the finished car.

What is the 'Big Book' you keep refering to?

Author or link would help, Thanks

The Direct Connection Manual published around the mid 70’s

It was updated a few times...I think the last big big book was in '82. The more recent publications were the "Chassis" books...9th Edition is the newest. Doesn't seem to be any real changes though from the '82 big book and the 9th edition. Still extremely relevant info for doing an alignment despite the age.

I'm far from being a Mopar guy but the "Big Book" is well worth owning no matter what you race.

Doh! I had that book when I had my '60 Plymouth (even had a picture of it in there). Got rid of it when I sold it.

I believe the book is Direct Connection Performance Book. I think they were $10 when I got mine in 1980. I think they are on cd now.

We had it out last year and was pleased with its performance. But we quickly learned our redneck roll bar wasn't cutting it.

Being a ‘ Neck is a simple life using applied imagination.

I still have all the ‘big books’ some are ragged but still there.
