How negative can I run the pinion angle and still drive it on the street regularly. I'm building a bbf for my 94 and i'm sure I will have hooking issues. I've raised the front of the rear lower control mounting up approx 1". Let me know if there's any other tricks that may help with the launch. Thanks Troy

By moving your mounting points around, you changing your instant center.

Kevin at baseline really knows his stuff. If you give him your measurments he can plot your car out for you. Depending on your rear bushings will tell you where to put your negative pinon angle.
