At the top of the frame on the lf with multiple holes. What is standing it up straighter versus rolling it in going to accomplish? What does everyone think is better in the slick?? Thanks

The straighter a shock/spring is up and down the more spring rate you will have. In the slick I would want my LF in the position that stands it up the most. This will use the most spring rate and tighten the car up on entry when it jacks weight to the RR.

Huckleberry hit the nail on the head. Straighter up and down will create more wheel rate at that corner (the tire will think it is on a stiffer spring). This will de-wedge the car on entry (load LF and RR) and tighten you up on entry. It shouldn't mess with exit much if it all.
