  • It wasn't sitting well with me that my LS swap RWD Beretta was running slower than the v6 FWD one I built years ago. haha So I made some free adjustments and was able to beat the MPH but still not the ET. The wheel hop that is screwing up my 60's is better but still there. Feels much better on the street with my anti-squat adjustment and definitely going in the right direction, but I'll have to drop the coin on some adjustable shocks to tame the bounce at the strip.

    I thought the Beretta's were FWD. Is this a RWD conversion?

    I have to get the suspension stuff sorted on my mustang as well. Hooks like shit right now lol it definitely seems to run better with the spark smoothing turned off

      Yeah it's turned on in a factory ls1 t56 tune and 4.8 nv3500...so I had kept it. I've seen no jerkiness or anything with it disabled either, so ADIOS!

      Isn't Fox body mustang geometry pretty well figured out by now?
      I found out some of my "rule of thumb" torque arm adjustments were incorrect for my car because the front mount of my torque arm is lower than in F bodies. I was at 189% antisquat originally. 😳
