steel motor vs allum motor.
setting up a black front end car by the 2008 rocket manual. it has all these starting points wich are good but what motor are they assuming im using. is there no difference in setup? Also i have seen w my previos car (not a rocket) that rear % was hard to get. my min weight for a steel head motor was 2300. but to get my percentages right was always 75-100 lbs over my min weight. so car ended up w around 2375-2400 lbs.
so if i ran an aluminum motor by the book setup my front springs will be 550 l/s 350 r/s rear springs 200 l/s 225 r/s with a total weight of 2300 w proper %
and w the steel motor all the same springs even tho im a hundred pounds heavier???
this manual suggests that running a 275 spring in slick is ok? seems awful soft for a steel motor. has anybody ran that setup w a steel motor? thanks
