I used to have a chart that told me what to adjust for what conditions and the site that had it doesn't exist any more (and I can't find the printout). Since the cancer was removed on my car and the Engman inner stiffener and the Brad M. outer stiffeners installed, my car has become extremely stiff. So I need to start from scratch adjusting shocks, tire pressures and anti-sway bar. I didn't have to do this earlier since the PO had the car set up and gave me settings and it worked. I tried them a couple of weeks ago and they don't work any more.
Does anyone have a chart that shows what adjustments to make when a car is loose, tight, etc? I have Koni yellows, stock rear anti-sway bar, a 19mm front anti-sway bar, and 180lb progressive springs. My tires are Kuhmo ecsta v700 205 50x15 and 225 45x15. Front rims are 7" and rears are 8". Oh and the car is a 1970 914-6 with a 2.7L RS'ish engine. And I did search the archives but didn't find what I was looking for. Thanks in advance. Mike P.S. Here is my car in action a couple of weeks ago.
