Question Basic Ride Height Question

Actually this is a basic fore-aft ride height question....should the car be pretty much level OR slight nose piched down attitude? Sunday driver, DE and autocross. Gonna do a torsion bar re-index tommorrow because rear seems a tad too high, but not bad.

Thanks as usual.

I believe BA suggest a rake of 1 degree down, from rear to front.

And don't forget that to get that the measurement from the ground to the center of the Front wheel well arch needs to be about .5" higher than the rear. With the given desired measurements usually being 25.5 for the front and 25 for the rear. The wheel arches are cut differently if you hadn't already realized that.
