Re: front supension beam bearings

If you use the Delrin front bushings would it be better to cut off the ears and slide them in to where the bakelite bushings would normally be. Ream them out to 1.50ish... and use the standard Vee aluminum spacer (or the trick SR spacer) on the sway bar and the standard dust seal on the spring pack?

Re: Zink C4 restoration-the long term project

Hi, Looks like a nice project. The frame looks pretty original which will keep the vintage guys happy. It also looks like the a previous owner updated the front hoop (the bar area in front of the steering wheel) and added forward bracing to the rear roll bar. Which are great added safety features an...

Re: Which is worse...Long Box Short Box??

I actually have both transaxles. I have a fresh new 1.26 long box, and a short box which came with my Zink. The short box was not built by anyone that would make it an “outstanding short box”. I was hopping to just use the 1.26 long box; I didn’t know how possible or impossible NHMS would be. Based ...

Re: Which is worse...Long Box Short Box??

I've heard that at Limerock, the Vandecar's (aka experienced drivers :), aka not me) can drive it with a short box, leave it in 4th and drive s#E^^G%F&* out of the car and do well. I've never driven NHMS with a long box, so I didn't know how bad the uphill would be.

Thanks all

Re: Startting from Scratch - FV or FST?

be aware that no fv drivers will appreciate a fst attempting to race with them due to the fact that you'll pass them on the straight and impede them in the corners until you learn the handling,which takes years. That's a silly point to argue for someone not to start in FST... Since if he starts in ...
