194 trans and a 355 should work good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcAQr...a_playerSimple setup....Left front stock. right front mustang gt with the sn 95 long armBoth towers slotted for camber and the lower strut mounts were slotted for camber as well with the nuts welded on to keep them from moving.Left front flip the strut towers upper pivot "donught assembly" upside down for downtravelThe right front leave alone but put the spacer that comes with the strut ontop of the strut tower under the nut instead of on the strut before you stick the strut throuh the Doughnut.Use 5/3 wheels outside and 4/4 inside.On the left rear stock spring is good. On the right rear use an elcamino pigtail coil you kinda have to do some trimming on the car and some massaging to the spring to make it fit.... But its a really soft spring.On the left rear there is an oblong hole above the lower shock mount drill it and install your left shock in that hole. I'm the right rear I reccomend a kyb gas adjust. If you don't know what that is its just a plain old shock you can get at autozone but its stiff ans works well.With the Soft spring and stiff shock the car rolls quite a bit but slowly it stays hooked up good and stays predictable on entry.Took me 4 years to come up with that setup then I won 8/10 races and came second at a tri track turkey night on only 3 cylinders. if you wanna know the other more serious half pm me.Also no front swaybar on the car.
