This works out to a 47.8% - 52.2% front to rear weight bias. Not bad for a 385 series BB.

And here is a picture of how I set/check ride heights.



I machined up a half pin plug and use a machine square level to ensure it's set correctly. Then have some painters tape on the fender lip to make sure I always measure to the same point every time.

Got to drive it yesterday, but my son-in-law was with me so I did not push it to see if it made a difference.

Hello John ! hope everything is fine with you & family ! nice to see you play with the scales ....nono, you won't get my Pantera GT5S numbers 58% rear...still very glad with the car , also on race coilovers and Michelin race tires....even proud that "your" Carroll Shelby was the first owner of my cat.. RIP , he was a legend !
