    Default Rocket birdcage timing

    2012 rocket, with four bars set to the lengths rocket calls for and car at ride height, the left birdcage leans forward 3 degrees and the right birdcage leans forward 3 1/2 degrees. Does anyone have input on birdcage timing at ride height? Should it be this way? Should it be straight up verticle? Is there anything to be gained with adjusting the birdcage timing etc? Thank you

    Rocket doesn't set theirs at 12 o'clock, Its just his theory on jig building it should be the way you described. They also have you scale it with bar in certain places for this reason too before you move them to race positions because they don't want any indexing to be a factor I got to listen to him and Mark Bush argue over it in a RACEWISE class and relating it to how you build a car flat on a jig versus setting up at ride height regardless your running his chassis he has it that way for a reason. Most timing changes you won't clock the cages anymore we refer to indexing as a bar change on the cage and clocking as rotating your cages and we use indexing way more these days to control the speed in which the cage indexes into the spring
