I don't recall the specifics of Irv's mods, but if they bolt onto the stock point, then may be legal? Joe(B) Korey, would been raced production cars prohibit similar to long as other body complain

I don't know if my front suspension is legal or not. It DID go through SCCA tech inspections like that for 12 years prior to me buying the car, but that certainly doesn't mean that it was legal. Irv

For those who may be interested, the fulcrum pins on my car are mounted to an "L" shaped bracket, on the vertical plane of the "L". This accomodates the use of shims to set the front camber. The hori

Of course those nice aluminum lockheed calipers look just like Jag brakes if you smear enough grease on 'em. Don't try Wilwood superlites though--they don't look anything like a girling, even if you

Bill Of course it's not like I haven't thought of trying something like that, especially at tracks like Blackhawk. But the consequences for cheating in SCCA is most sever. Lose of license...banishmen

I did this comparison for TR3/4 suspension. There was very little difference between moving the upper fulcrum inward or shortening the upper A arms. I think the roll center was about 1/8 inch higher

I have a set of the Lockheed aluminum TR3 calipers. They are from a Devin SS, and from what I understand, were also used on Cobras. Nice pieces! They are about 1/3 the weight of stock TR3 calipers,

Yup. Though really good brakes are addictive, and not as likely to expose the next weakest link as more beans in the engine room. Every so often I look at those funky little rod ends that hold the st

Do I remember you saying that you have the new 3D susp. program? I have been giving it some serious thought myself. Will it do the things you expected? I also use Aurora rod ends instead of bushings

Would shortening the spring towers be a legal mod? It seems like it should be legal. From my experiments with FSGP, that looks like a very good thing to do. By lowering the upper fulcrum you improve
