Thanks there Art,

I am running the 'QA 1' coil over shockers and a spring set up off the shelf. They are an aluminium full adjustable.

I have a 9" rear end set up with four bars.

The guys at McDonald Bros Racing primarily build race cars and drag cars, but have not had a lot of experience with Cobras.

Whilst we are happy with the shocker set up. The tyre pressures was the first stop. From there I will start playing with shocker adjustments they are currently set on 4 with an adition 15 adjustments.

Additionally I can then wind up the springs. So theres plenty of experiment and 'R+D' ahead.

I have 15' rims the alloy halibrand style.

8" front with 235/60 and 10" back with 295/50 B F Goodrich T/a radial.

Once I get the tyre pressures right I can then experiment with settings.



Hell I am enjoying driving the car around. Its still in white Gel coat but all complete. I have a little interior aluminium work to do to complete the car then I will paint it in early 2004.




I have my photos on a disc now but will take my laptop to one of our posting experts to put some pictures on.

Talk soon. Again thanks for your help.

Bernie
