My build is winding down so that means more parts are going in my Vee all the time. It's getting close to it's final weight. This weekend is the hood and bumper and then all thats lef tis the wiring really. my problem is this Armada spring voodoo we're all trying to figure out. I have M1123 with cast rears and I put in the Armada springs. I have seen other people with this setup have to use spacers but I cut off 1/3 of one coil and I'm sitting with the frame near the differential at 23" in the front and the back. I do have 39 inche tires so that accounts for 1" but I think it's supposed to be about 18 or 19. I'm going to have to figure this out before I can drive it. My engine is probably hundreds of pounds lighter than the stock one so that might be part of it.
