Anyone with hotchkis suspension?
Permalink  

I just bought their stage 2 kit with new control arms front and rear for my small block 68 Beaumont , great looking kit!  My question is what camber and caster settings should I be aiming for? Car is not going to be full blown auto cross car, it will also do a bunch of highway duty. 

Thanks for any input!

If no one knows on here I'd think there might be a tech line at Hotchkis who could answer your question.

Hey Chris glad to see you chiming in on the site! My good buddy Mike(70Humbler on the site) just bought this kit yesterday through summit racing for his 1970 GTO we restored together. We will be installing it at Robbie's together in the new year. Really nice looking kit and look forward to installing it cause I know I wouldn't be able to afford it for my car lol! He also bought the front disc conversion kit through Summit. He paid $3650 US through Summit Racing with free shipping to his box in Blaine WA. It was $4500 US to buy direct from Hotchkis ? Go figure eh!
