Well, I did it. In January I ordered a new Jerico DR4 to replace my Muncie M22. I talked with Scott at Jerico and ordered. He says that the 3.08 first gear should get me off the line with no issues. I should be getting it the first part of March.
Now that I'll be able to launch with great authority I thought I better address some issues at the rear of the car. My car has the stock 3 link w/panhard and the upper and lower arms boxed. I bought a pair of Hotchkis adjustable uppers and an adjustable panhard. It was a good thing I did this because the single upper was pulling the mounting plate rearward and just begining to **** the rearend. My buddy and I have added extra gussets and lateral strength to the mounting forward mounting plate so this won't happen again. We haven't quite finished yet but the whole thing looks quite trick. If the weather holds this week we can finish and take it down the street for a test.
I can't wait to get the tranny in. Woodburn opens for testing Mar 8.
