EB4man...the chassis does flex to a point, the reasoning for the flat chassis was to asborb the bumps better, and yes it's longer which also helps but the chassis does give alittle............ I run the aluminum rear toe-in block as well and also the rear aluminum FR0 block.

My clips are behind the upper front arm, red springs but have the blue and black to try out. My camber is eyeballed to what I like but its slightly negative in the front with straight up in the rear 0deg for most traction. Gold sway bars...gearing is prolly stock and stock clutch...10,000center...7,000front and 5,000rear in the diffs....35wt. in the shocks. I have not tried the car out yet with this setup. I just rebuilt it. the engine is crazy if you know RB engines. 086 pipe with long header.
