how much is the car lowered?
unless i was racing it, i wouldn't care to correct the geometry/center of gravity.
when i think of a panhard, i think of it more for lateral movement (auto-x) or for aligning the rear for bigger tires.
what's in all those boxes??

I couldn't tell you how low it is but its low, theres no fender gap in the front and hardly any in the rear
boxes: seats, rims, intake, exhaust(for my bike), the red thing is an genIII engine stand, I added the turbo and some little stuff. plus the tires for the T/A are there now, and my moms old rims off the vette. they wont fit anywhere in the garage with 2 bikes and 2 cars. plus the 2 engines tool box and the engine hoist

you need a fuel pump. that's probably why he cranked up the pressure so high to compensate during hot start up.

got to really get on it kinda. on my lunch break I went to the bank and decided to floor it down freepart. got it up to about 96mph it pulled pretty good. then it didn't wanna start back up. now I really do think its the fuel pump. I couldn't hear it priming when I turned the key.
hope your right I still wanna drive it to tahoe so get it done FAST.
then I was gonna push it into the shad hoping it would cool quicker. mom turns the wheel then *POP* WTF was that? she gos to turn the wheel and it effertlessly turns in circles and the wheels don't move. turns out the the splines on the grant install kit are striped, the main nut had back just about all the way off and the threads in the little "Y" thing are all stripped
this is how it sits now

gonna get a kit in the morning and through it on then hopefully get the no hot start problem solved in to to make it to tahoe

i put my steering wheel on like 90 degrees wrong if that counts lol today i threw it on in a hurry trying to get to the track at a decent time..
the funny thing is that it was just the really worn ignition lock cylinder causing the oil pressure gauge to go wacky works fine now
and i discovered after i was finished that my "spare" column turn signal lever is broken
ill put my oricnal column back together and put it in there lol
