Re: 79 Malibu- Stocker-Stick Shift
 

Hey Guys!

Dad was able to get the car to the track last week. You will see 35 years of rust for my old man behind the driver seat and a lot of suspension bugs to work on.

The best pass he made was 13.42 @ 102mph. We have the rev limiter set at 6400(very conservative for gear swap misses), leaving at 5000, and set at 42 degrees of timing.
First thing on the list will be springs across the board. Fronts are cut springs but you can see now with the engine in place it sits to low.
Back we are not getting any kind of squatting with the Calvert shocks set on one of the lowest settings.

Overall happy with the start!
