I’d like to see that “Channeling” if you could!
The car is sitting on the garage floor right now. I might get it on jackstands this weekend and get underneath it and take some pics. I don't think I have any pics of that on my phone, but I will look and see.....
this works on my 63 sf

Can you explain how it was channeled?

What are the goals for the car? If you want to run 11s or 10s then go with the classic hot rod look. If you want to run real quick then you will be back hanging the car most likely and it will end up sitting low.

Nose down, cuts the air a little better than level on street type cars that are fast. Mine sits way higher in the back than I like but---------------it is what it is!

I like the old school rake look. But lower is functionally better. As well as aerodynamics, there’s weight transfer advantages.

Do you drag guys scale your cars to get numbers so you can adjust corner weight, cross weight and such?

Mine weighs 3254 without me in it and I do have the corner weights also.

Didn't mean Ru Paul drag guys...should have said drag racers....
Back in the 60's we'd toss bags of sand, old tires or just about anything in the trunk for weight... that stopped after a few guys lost their loads on the track.

Although I am planning double duty tor this girl, this is almost exactly what I am after.
I will be using 18" wheels in the rear and 16" in the front so that will alter it also.
What size tire and rim on back? It looks great!
Mine sits a bit higher in the back due to SS springs and tire clearance issues. I have lowered the front a bit looking for maximum suspension travel. Mid 11 second car.
