Specs on subframes?

[Payton King]

I am trying to get my car together as quickly as I can so I can provide real world numbers. I am looking at the first or middle part or April at a completion date. I will not have any before numbers to compare to as my car had the stock 1st gen suspension before I took it apart 3 years ago. Will my set-up be the ultimate...I doubt it. There will always be someone with more money and resources to best anyones effort. I, like most of you, would have liked to have seen a comparision of performance data inwhich to make my desision. So, when my car is done I have access to some data acquistion equipment and someone that knows how to use it and I will provide numbers good and bad (hoping for no bad numbers) My car is a 69 camaro with an LS1/T56 combo. It will have a 21st Century C5 frame, DSE connectors, DSE rear leafs, Global West rear shackel kit and I will be running C6 tire and rim package. No mini-tub...unless I have a weak moment in the next few weeks.

Soon as I can get it together I will post numbers. I would hope that others would do the same. Even though I have committed to the 21st Century frame, it can only make our hobby better to have actual data on all of the products that are offered. Would I like to have a head to head test with other products...yes! I think that would be an absolute ball. To address the same car concept: way too much work. Not only would you have to swap frames, probably tires due to offset and headers/exhaust systems. I think similar cars with the respective manufacturers parts installed and same tire compound would be as about as close as you could get. If I am not mistaken **** Guldstrand and Herb Adams had a shoot out in the 80's with 2 cars in one of the magizines...I think it was a 1st gen and a 2nd camaro.
