Ah yes, but I don't know of any person on here who would actually run their car with no airdam in front, at the very least. That seems to be standard issue. But, point taken.
Davy
Yes, the whale tails are seriously efficient at producing downforce. As I remember the thread (one of 'em anyway) someone of note stated that getting the air to off the car as far back from the Z as possible was advantageous for aerodynamics--that means that a whale tail that protrudes from the back of the car will actually do a lot of good.

Whoa, I tried to have htem load from the site they were on, but something bad happened. Whaaat? Hrm. Sorry, but I'll try to address it later. Not good...
Davy
Aux, what about that racing place you had do some work on your alignment? I don't think it was Dando's, but I remember they were a little pricey. Maybe Mike D can make a suggestion?
Davy
Good luck, Jersey! If you have the idea, it'll probably make some good money if your friend thinks so too. Jump on it.
I had a great idea (with my buddy at the time) to market colored flame cigarette lighters. Sounds funny? Now 20 years later I find colored flame lighters in stores now. Smoking was more popular in the 1980's and we could have made some cash with good marketing. I think we lost because nobody moved when we had the chance, not because the idea wa half baked. Just my $.02 If your idea is better, you better move on it...
Davy
Wow, Terry is that old?!?
Many happy returns, Terry, and have the BEST birthday yet. You have your health, your mental focus, a great car, skills, heck--what more can a man ask for?
Happy birthday!
Davy
An inch?!? I bet you're golden with that much room. I can't imagine even worn out mounts giving that much deflection. The caveat is that your engine is running smoothly on all cylinders. It seems that when an engine is misfiring, the whole engine bucks from side to side. I think you'll be ok (outsider's viewpoint here).
Davy
The engine bay should have gotten you something. I like the fact that you have done the work yourself on your conversion and are debugging it yourself. I also do my own work because I have no money left after paying for eveything else!
