Need a little input on front end setup, Comin into a corner the machine seems to be okay,but when comin out of a corner the front seems twitchy. My camber is set at around 6*, king pin is around 8* and caster is around 8*. Just wondering also if the differential would have something to do with in how it handles. When I took a test run I did not have the differential locked .

My old racer had an open peerless 600 in it, the open vs. locked rear axle does drive different. At least to me it does, as I went from a tank with that 600 powered by a never rebuilt 12 blow by machine to what I have now in my mod-x. Get that rear locked and see what it does then.

Ty, I'll bet your left rear is getting light. You're transferring too much weight and unloading it.

Locked the rear end, but can't really test to well until I get the belt replaced.
