Getting a bunch of questions from new subscribers about the AS line... Figured it was worth a quick, less than 10 minute video, to cover this topic since it is a great suspension tuning tool to help provide a reference point, from which you can make educated changes to your 4 Link suspension! Ladder bars are discussed, but checkout this Percentage of Rise video for ladder bars: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mmjieeSov4Q.html Go fast, go straight! Be SAFE!! KevinWilsonSBC

I used to figure CG of vehicles and cargo longer than 108" so we could put it on aircraft in the USAF. Used to have all that math memorized, but I been out for 16 years and for the last two years had a scale that told us the CG up to 240 inches. Tracked vehicles like M1 Abrams are lots of fun to do. They spread everything out and weigh 'a lot' which is an understatement. Man I am going to have so much fun doing 60ft to 100ft launches in Canada (its closer than Mexico) setting up my car this summer. I have an idea of where I will start with the rear end of the 68. I'll need to get it scaled, the guys at the gravel pit like me, so I'll haul it over there and see how heavy the front and rear are. This is going to be a ton of fun.

@@KevinWilsonSBC 68 LeMans, currently it has a 461 Pontiac in it. Somewhat largish flat solid, Edelbrock heads, 3.42 gears, and its lightened extensively. I dropped more than 800lbs off the car when I built it. I plan to take it to the no name nationals this fall and run other youtubers. It might not have the 461 in it at that point, but I want to make it hook on gravel. lol

I love seeing these informative videos people can learn from and put it to use over these other channels that don't teach nothing or that throw little bits and pcs out there and leave yeah hanging. All the many years I been street and track racing, this is the best suspension setup channel i've seen.. Another great one, as all of the other videos are. By listen, watching and rewatching, and taking notes to studying and practice on your car, you should be able to get your car pretty damn close so where you can make a test hit a fine tune from there.

This video and explanation makes understanding the anti-squat line and instant center very easy to understand. I finally built a car fast enough to use this kind of information. I’ve always loved drag racing but never had what I consider fast car. This is my first four link car and your videos have given me the most useful and easy to understand knowledge of this kind of stuff compared to other peoples videos. Thanks for so much useful info. I can’t wait to put all of this to use in the spring because it’s way to cold with snow and salt all over so my car won’t be touching these roads for a few months unfortunately.

You draw the AS line the exact same way. Then it is a matter of the front leaf spring mount location in relation to the AS line.

@builditinyourgarage7826 2 года назад

This is a great video explaining to people how to find the CG of there car, which we all know is very important. As discussed in this video, I always used the Camshaft for height of CG and when I finally got my scales (which you need to find front to back) it is very easy to build 10" stands so you can do the math to find the height. After measuring the cam centerline and now using the scales, I will always do the 10" rise (angle) method to find the height of the CG. Great information! Keep up the videos.

@KevinWilsonSBC 2 года назад

Thanks so much for sharing here!!! Keep me posted as I am very curious how close the camshaft height is to your actual CG height using this method. It absolutely works!!! Go fast, go straight! Be SAFE!!

@builditinyourgarage7826 2 года назад

I have found that the camshaft height is pretty close in street cars (Cars only not trucks, elco, etc) that have the engine in stock location and the car is stock. The more you modify the car (Back half the car), Move engines, remove interior, etc the CG does move quite abit (20-30%) off the cam shaft centerline. So stock cars I would say it is ok to use, but for anything modified (which is most cars anymore) I wouldn't recommend cam shaft height. But Like stated above, if you have scales to do the corner weights, why wouldn't you use the same tool to use the raise method to find the CG? Thanks for the reply.

Hey Kevin, Found this video useful for building a electric drag bike! What would you suggest for ideal traction? If over is +100, and under is under 100.. Would it be ideal at 95? Where is the math to sorting this? In my case my swing arm is .58" above the anti squat line, and the bike is unloading the rear shock fully and spinning very badly. I have ability to drop the pivot 2.6" below the anti squat line. Kinda a one or the other situation. I think this would be a step in the right direction?

What happens with a over head camshaft engines vs central camshaft engines for reference?

@ajaychapman2276 2 года назад

Yes I also would like to know a method when using a overhead cam 👍🏿

@KevinWilsonSBC 2 года назад

Great question. Measure from the centerline of the crankshaft bolt to one of the centerlines of the cam, then divide by 2. This will get you close. Remember unless you use the method in the description to find the exact height of the CG, this is a reference line whereby you can make an educated baseline, then test and make changes from their based on the car's reaction.

@Adam.Cox.Racing 10 месяцев назад

So for a Modular motor with overhead cams what would you use for CG height ? Looks like the formula to calculate it would take a physics major lol

@KevinWilsonSBC 9 месяцев назад

Good question. Really using the cam location for traditional motors is just a reference point so you have a known location from which to test and then make educated changes to the IC. So you can get the crank height, then measure up to 3/4 of the way to overhead cam height. However, the absolute best way to find the HEIGHT of the CG is here: www.longacreracing.com/blog.aspx?post=8791&title=Center-of-Gravity-Height Go fast, go straight! Be SAFE!

Hey Kevin which should I use on a torque arm 4 link or ladder bar?

@jasonstormoen 2 года назад

I know I'm not kevin but, are you trying to use a torque arm and a 4 link or ladder or are you wanting to know what to switch to? I ask because of the way your question is worded. if you have a torque arm you don't run a 4 link or ladder with it. That would be like trying to add a 4 link to a leaf car. If your wanting to switch from a torquearm, the 4 link is always the best way to go.

@KevinWilsonSBC 2 года назад

At a very high level without any info, if you ask my choice, 4 Link all day long. Go fast, go straight! Be SAFE!!

@jakefriesenjake Год назад

Thanks a bunch Kevin! I'm converting my ladder bar, lowered 81 Camaro with 500 ponies and a stick shift tranny into a 4 link setup for better street-ability. This car won't be raced or auto-crossed at all, I just want it to drive nice, hook up the best it can with probably 100% anti-squat and with wide street tires. I'm designing the brackets and bars that will be installed. Question, some sites state for best street manners, you want a level to the road bottom bar, and a equal length, and parallel top bar. I will be adding a super beefy diagonal link. What are some do's and don'ts, for a street setup? I'm leaning towards a bottom bar that is as long and low as possible, with it angled up toward the front chassis mount probably 1", and having a top bar that is level with the ground and around 75% the length of the bottom bar. I seen a post where it said that you want to rear axle centerline to track perfectly vertical. What do you think?

@KevinWilsonSBC Год назад

I would really encourage you to invest in a 30 minute phone call to discuss this and much more before starting and finishing the conversion. Checkout my website services at "samsonperformance.com" and you will see a 30 minute phone call as an option. There is more to this to cover. Go fast, go straight! Be Safe!

On the F body torque bar do you draw it's line from the bottom bar meeting with where the lower control arm line intersects?

@KevinWilsonSBC 2 года назад

You can do that as a reference mark for a shortened tq arm. But really the AS line for F-Body is mainly impacted by the LCA mount point on the chassis.
