Changing the rake of a car can effect float level. One of the tricks to altering (fine tuning) a holley style carb is slightly raising or lowering the float level to change AFR with no air bleed or jet changes.
The odd thing is it seemed to drive fine with the rake slightly higher. I have a feeling that the gas was still winter blend and is causing it to be a different octane level than I want. I spoke with a friend who this time of year always runs racing fuel to make sure he doesnt get stuck with "bad gas" (not farting around!). I will drive it empty and try some racing fuel and see.
Anyone have the Manufacturers spec on the ride height for the front. I am sure everyone is going to say "it is personal preference", But i have seen a lot of guys with really low front specs on forums and I scratch my head trying to figure out why my number seems so high. A lot of you guys are running 20.5" and mine is around 27. I cant imagine having mine sit that low, but wondering what benefit lower gives?
