ron12 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Does anybody know what the rules are for 2007 for Mid-Atlantic region and how do they differ from Kent's rules. When drawing for positions, can you put my name in the hat twice this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyk Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I heard he was trying to make all 89 Firebirds run four cylinder engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT4Point6 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Man, those Mustang guys will stop at nothing to try to bring the GM cars down to their level! Lets see, you start with a PHB and we don't, you start with coil overs and we aren't allowed to have them, you have 50-70 cubic inches on all of the Ford motors., you have stock 12 rotors, we have to buy 13's and machine them down, you have a 6sp and we only get 5, you have optispark and we, oh never mind, that one is in our favor! We are just trying to keep the playing field level.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Matt1548534716 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Kevin, don't forget that we are allowing LS1s into CMC-2 next year. That will even everything out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know I'm just razzin you ChEBy BoYZ. I think the cars are really competitive with equal drivers. If we add a PHB, it's only adjustable on one end, the other is fixed. The one adjustable end is just to try and make it level. Does adjusting one end change the roll center? My T45 5th is .67, and it looks like the T56 is .74-.84 range which would be better. No after market 5th gears for the T-45 it so it doesn't get used except at Cal Speedway and Mid Ohio. I know you don't use 6th but just tossed it in there because it sounded good How much does it weigh? T-45 comes in at 109. T-56 shows up at 108-129, not much more weight http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/T-56.asp#Car If I let my engine get below 3k, it's a dog. Best to keep it between 4500-6200. Peak tq is around 3750 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 since you have to fab mounts for both ends of the PHB, you can start w/ it in the weeds. i cant do that. one end has to stay in a factory hole. your "factory" hole is where you put it. level doesnt make the PHB have a much lower roll center, its the lower part. i would like to lower both ends about 2"-3". the T-56 is like 130 lbs. no aftermarket 5th for the T-56, unless you wanna pay $900.
