You have the benefit of being Auto, but they really need tramp rods/Caltracs. Luckily, we have a setup that the builder of this engine has tested, which we are replicating, BUT it doesnt change that we are running a manual without a slipper clutch.

Not on a run for a time. When this hits PC it will be clutch dump central.

Won't need to clutch dump for wheelspin, but will for instant wheel speed in 2nd or 3rd gear

i do not want to much wheel spin but thats going to be my worst enemy due to tyre restriction for my one tonne ute (have to be c rated tyres 215 60 16 light truck ) they smoke well just no grip .might be a good start to learn how to drift , if thats all the ute is good for . :mrgreen:

Wheelspin isn't the aim of this, it's just the outcome.

i have seen some control arm that fit just like the rtv have for about $700 and they will fix axel tramp so they say .looks like that you can change the angle of the diff as well so it is adjustable .might go to the wreckers and get the rtv ones and cut them in half and machine the centre out and thread a hardened rod into it so i can adjust it to suit ,and give that a try .

at the moment i have no axel tramp at all ,but that might change when i have more power .just have a look at the white load saver plus that i fitted to my rear leaf springs ,they seem to work ok . the only draw back is that the ute does not squat down on hard acceleration , so i loose traction of the line a lot easier than if it had some adjustable rod fitted to it so i can get the correct diff angle

This will be getting a set of Caltracs. No screwing around with hoping we can make a setup the reduces/minimises tramp when there is a setup that will be available soon that is proven to hook up. The test bed is a 570rwkw FG GS ute, that has run 1.5 second 60ft times.

Not a four link, but a set of bars that run from the diff to the front spring mount to reduce/minimise spring wind up. The company is Bluestreak Performance, and as yet, I don't have a link. They are in the midst of setting up.
