Without filling out a whole set up sheet, the significant changes were:
1. Running c-in/c-in on the new toe blocks
2. 1.5 mm shims under the rear toe block
3. Servo/speedo/shorty battery/[3/4 ounce weight]/motor
4. White rear springs.
The rest of your set up is really personal preference and based on tuning for the tires you use. Keep in mind, to put the 1.5mm under the rear toe blocks, you will need to loosen the 2 transmission screws prior to putting the rear bulkhead back. Also do not run any shims on top of the toe block, your already past the 1 mm the designers allowed for spacing.

.5mm is 1 degree of Anti Squat right? So you're at like 5 now?
What front end setup, oil, and piston did you run?

Got the rb6 converted to mm. Can wait to try it out this wknd. Starting setup should have plenty of rear traction on our med traction track, very tight also. We shall see
From how I read the post above, he added 1.5mm to the rear toe block. So he should be at .5 of pro squat

Most accurate answer I could find without measuring myself.
From Oople
"Definitely 2deg with no spacers under either RF or RR blocks.
Shims are 0.5mm thick which equates to 0.75deg per shim (1.5deg per mm) - if you want to get really accurate it's actually moves between 0.71 & 0.78deg due to the swept angle changing too but most people use 0.75 without issue"
So I have read where some people say 1mm gives 1 deg and where most say .5mm gives 1 deg.

K King Anti squat is where the front hanger is higher than the rear hanger and Pro is where the rear hanger is higher than the front hanger

But, if the rear pin is already angled up, that is preventing squat, hence anti-squat.
If you make that even higher, you're raising that pin angle even more creating more anti-squat, right? So he went from 2, to like 5 (I use the .5mm = 1degree method).
PS AS always confuses me, so any help would be awesome :P

Loads of RB6 parts on the horizon:

Hopefully the pistons won't cost a GHEA!

I measure the height of the hinge pin from the chassis when I shim the rear 2mm it gave me an equal measurement front to rear of the hinge pin giving you 0 degree anti-squat..
I have been fine tuning my TC and the degree of the squat is = to the thickness of the shims..
