I ordered a set of Strange Double adjustable shocks for the front and rear of my Monte. Was wondering if anyone had a baseline setting for these shocks to get me started and then I can tune from there. Car weighs 3499 race ready, about 57% front/ 43% rear, Hoosier QTP tires, powerglide w/brake.

Mitch, this is a family forum, can we keep this about cars. :lol: :lol:
 
For what it's worth , I "converted" my 24 position to your 9 position settings.

front Comp 7 Rebound 3
rear Comp 5 Rebound 2

I am trying to find how leaving off a trans brake effects these setting, if at all.

They worked for me almost too good, could not hold the car on the line below above 2500 rpm so there was a slight bog.The traction was pulling the motor down.

I just tickled the second staging light then raised the rpm as the second yellow lit and then mashed the throttle and she just went. 10.40, 10.44, 10.43.

Next time out will be T-brake only starting at 3000 rpm launch and raising from there.
