I got a bunch of boxes of random "stuff" with the Satellite I picked up last weekend. These brackets were in one box together. Anyone recognize them. Trying to get everything sorted and labeled.
Would take moving the battery to the trunk, an aluminum radiator, maybe a mini starter. My 71 Coronet is 54/46 bone stock. The 71 up cars are neither as heavy nor as nose heavy as people seem to think.
This is my Coronet on my corner scales when I first got it. It's lighter now. With some...
Not sure why everyone seems to think you'd have to lighten the RR... my '71 Coronet weighs about the same as the M3, the RR is lighter already.
As far as who would win... a lot of "depends". What is the track surface like, do we get to turn off all the electro-nannies on the M3, are they on...
So, I found out about a great deal on some parts... and they came with a free car. Not even joking really, given the amount I paid for the parts, the car really was a freebee. Sometimes you find someone getting rid of stuff at firesale prices and you just have to go with it. I'll be making...
Ya, I saw that. For me, a one belt system that looks similar to the two belt you're using would be optimal. Single belt systems have some advantages like easier belt changes, less slip, etc.
Your car though, certainly not trying to tell you what you should do. Just making conversation.

If you're actually the guy you say you are, you'll understand the compromises engineered into the stock rubber bushings and how they're detrimental to performance handling. Particularly with the grip levels modern tires are capable of. Delrin, UHMW, Polyurethane, etc, have all been working in...
Delrin and other plastics get used pretty regularly for bushings in performance handling applications. Stock bushings are very soft and allow enough movement that it's not really acceptable for a performance handling application.
