Well, I took the Visalia Dodge Boys Alpine out today.
It runs pretty well but I hate to say the front springs are too tall.
I may take the original competition spring, clean and paint, and put them back in. They may be too low! The limited slip seems to be working.
Otherwise it was a pretty nice drive. The engine is VERY smooth and revs quickly.
Now the question I have is why does this 1592 engine seem like it revs freer than the 1725 in the Sports Car Forum Alpine? Both are similarly prepared as far as lightening. Maybe it is just my imagination. I'll be interested how it feels when I really put my foot down.
