Tire pressure may be part of it - I was running 21 lbs in the rears - need to try it with them bumped up.

I would guess 20-25 depending on the tire to car aspect; IMO this is near on the money.

We'll have to hit a track rental at LVD sometime so we can get a bunch of runs and fine tune it.

There is a little plate inside the column that sort of guides the shift pattern; I have often wondered if that could be engineered to act like a Dual Gate, someone could make a little money if they could pull it off. |

It would be nice if it worked normal pulling towards you, and then had the ratchet effect pushing away with a positive stop before neutral.

Chris
You have any valve covers you can donate to my son's car, Moroso take off's from a car your restored maybe? What about some exhaust manifolds that aren't good enough for a restored car, long branch kind of stuff D port? |

No long branch ones Steve, but your car would take the regular A-body style anyways. I'll check what I've got - I know I've got round port ones. No Moroso covers but I've got factory chrome & painted, which do you want?

Moroso or stock chrome. I'm like 99% sure this would take long branch manifolds; it has the same frame as first gen Firebird. By the way; I'm going to try and talk Gary into letting me do a little work on your 68, clean up and stuff plus get it rolling good for transportation.

Same front sub frame as the 2nd gen F-bodies not first gen.
Huh?

No, you're right.
Still can't help you with the long branch.
