Re: Another Great Job by Marc Haibeck
Scott,
Your car looks fantastic as always and I really like the appearance of new gen ZR1 wheels. Was Marc finally able to retire the ride hight issue you fought for so long?

Re: Another Great Job by Marc Haibeck
Scott,
Boy did I consider those wheels before the Z06 wheels. They look great. Now you need brakes to match! I use an LT4 clutch disc in mine but it's a sprung hub. Helps with absorbing the clatter from the ZF and an aluminum single mass.

What Marc said was he: - unloaded the rear right spring about 10%. - preloaded the left front sping with a shim. - aligned the suspension using a special front camber specification of -25 degrees. Based on the many adjustments myself and others have tried I think the magic is simply preloading the front spring with a shim. I'm looking forward to getting the car on a lift and checking out the details. |
