Hello folks, Would any of you recommend trying pinion angle shims on ruster as a way to improve bite or 60' times?? I have no Caltracks or four link etc.. just stock type Leafs.. Thoughts? I have pinion angle shims in 2*, 4*, 6*.. Currently running with no snubber and Clamped front segment. Greg |

When I checked my angle after the driveshaft explosion it was 1* down.. Just trying some things.. or at least bench racing about them.. car wont go faster if I dont try out new ideas (or at least untried ideas) on ruster. Greg |

2 degrees down from what the transmission angle is. |

Find the angle on your trans yoke and put it 3-4 down from that. |

Cool . thanks for all the replys guys.. Once I get the new Alt Mounted and working on the car I am going to try some of the shims and I also have one of the spring packs modified like Guzzi Mark Suggests ready to bolt in.. Just gotta get me time to do all this junk! Greg |

You da man, Greg. You'll go 11s with your other converter, and I'm sure you'll keep walking it down. Records in your future? Lou |
