David,
You are making me very nervous to drive my car with quotes like "the handling is terrible on the street." I have riden in a worm and sector car and rack and pinion cars and the handling is fine - way better than a '60's Corvette. Many original cobra owners much prefer the handling of the leafspring 289's including the owner of the 2138 (Lemans Replica team car) who is building my engine. Although my car is only a repro, I much prefer staying correct on the suspension (i.e. leafspring). Each to their own I guess.
In looking at the suspension on my car, the uprights are billet, but the lower control arms are steel. Are you putting more billet pieces in the suspension now on the leafspring cars?
Mike
