is it a kit to buy or just some work? I was talking with dennis he is boss man he thinks it got worse when we put the anti roll on. we never stall the car much at all. 1800 to 2300 at most

The fix has been in use by a small number of stockers and bracket cars including my former car since ~ 2002. My car, doing exactly as you describe, is what got me and that of a friend, a bracket racer and stock eliminator racer from jersey thinking, which resulted in the solution and naming it. I then gave this idea to Alf Weibe who tried it and ultimately made it available for sale as part of a "front end" kit that also included longer ball joints.

These videos from the same day in 2007, shows me deeped staged at ~ 2600 RPM with no front end rise...

FYI, the converter is a tight ATI Treemaster 8" that flashed to 5400 RPM.

ALL GM A Body cars of this era have this issue as do the F and X body cars but to a lesser degree. So do GM G body cars.

I run a 1968 chevelle 375/396 in c/sa and does the same thing i put bigger back brake shoes on the rear hoping to hold the car from raising and it did not work . I would very much appecate any other ideas .it did same thing with differant converters. thanks Randy Guest Stock 4008

Randy the answer to your problem and every racer foot braking a GM A body car is in my post #62.

BTW, my Chevelle had 11" drum brakes in the rear and you are correct, that doesn't fix the problem.

Ballpark whats a front end kit cost?

opinions are like as_ho_es, everyone has one but the truth is NO and the front end kit that Alf sells is priceless being that it fixes this issue.

[philbilly]
