Congratulations. Your win was well deserved.

I first entered this contest in March 2012 and thought that I would try again. Below are pictures of my 1966 Monza Sport Sedan (referred to a "Special Deluxe" in Canada), 110 HP, automatic, Aztec Bronze, with Oldsmobile wheels. The car was manufactured at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada GM ass...

Kevin, thanks for the response. The left damper does close when the engine is cold.

Doug

As the engine is warming up the left damper opens fairly quickly whereas the right damper takes considerably longer to open, usually not until I have driven for a while. Is this normal or should both dampers open at roug...

Sorry Kevin I did not answer your question; the drop was about 1-5/16 inches with the new spring.

Doug

Thanks for the response Kevin. Could it be that the new spring is too stiff? I put the old spring back in and was able to adjust the float to the proper drop.
