Not sure if it’s “right” but it rides wonderfully and ain’t bad to look at.

My car was just raised by a couple of guys that know their way around race cars (IMSA WeatherTech) I've also heard directly from a well known shop they are doing the same to a lot of customer cars. Too low.
Mine Porpoised like a Porpoise!

I have a bit of "travel" now. With a great alignment and corner balancing the car drives like it should. It's still a stiff ride due to the torsion bar/sway bar set up but it's tolerable now. AND, it's a lot more fun to drive.

Pretty sure Craig Watkins/Johannes Van Overbeek and company could make us all happy with the Tractive Dampers but my car isn't built for that sort of application. '74 coupe.

So how are those quarter windows? Thinking of doing the same and while they look cool- are they a PIA?

7s work for me on 3 out of 4 corners. Right rear rubs. Will try some extra camber to see what it does
