fai,
yes, those are the grey color teflon ones. That's the same ones I use in my car. You can also drill the stock ones for the holes to be bigger.
I usually build my shocks so that when I compress the shock shaft in, it rebounds about 1/4 of the inch back out. This shouldn't be a very fast motion, but a smooth and fluid one. If it rebounds fast and all the way out, I think there is too much pressure in the shocks.

What a sensitive adjustment this is on the CUDA
This is a cool looking motor mount
Nice paint scheme for Reedy Race

Ahhh been a while since I last posted but rest assured the Cuda is still in my hands 
Will be taking a long drive tommorow to practice on the track where our state titles will be held in a few weeks:
Some pics for those who would like to see how we race down under:
http://www.imagefile.net/TFTRWebsite...p?TOPIC_ID=204
Its the biggest track I've seen to date here. Looks like its time to gear for some max top end speed.
Will be trying 6.2 to 6.4 on the old Monster stock motor. Should be seeing some really fast cars tommorow.

fai,
No problem. I'm not sure if my way is the perfect way, but my shocks when they are done in this process, they stay consistent until they get dirty around the shock bottoms then the rebound is reduced a bit.
redbull, madjack,
guess what!!?!! I found a small tube of that super grease. Now if we really hurry on Tuesday, we can try it out
by the way, interesting signature reading...was all that based on a true story???

Re: Victory, Victoire, Vittoria
CUDA WINS at So-Cal !
Finally after weeks of testing it was coming, just a matter of when. Well with the help of the new "Rubber Diff" it was time the CUDA took that final step to the top of the podium
I am so stoked on this car right now....
Thanks for all the assistance Steve & Madjack.
I think now its "Our Time"
TQ, and win 19T spec class.

I'll assume you will be posting a set-up sheet in the near future?
