Yes I notoced the LA56 will cut away the allen screw and redrilling is a pain for most so kindof see where your coming from.
In answer to your first question, if the drive train is really free and the belts are really loose then when you back off the power for a corner you get oversteer (your explanation is pretty much on the ball) but I like more steering so have 7.5 degrees on the front and means I dont really need to power into the corner as much as when you leave the apex and the car is really free so power or not its quick. My set up isnt there yet but when finished I aim to drive flat out down the straight and into the corner tight with no grip roll or issues, then it will be set up right (as I drove it in the 90's), but as with everything work is still needed to get this right.
Im having fun, and glad your on board as your layshaft design is going to take this car to a new level.  |
yes lets take this car to a new level- the supersonic level

kidding aside. tonight i will work out the alternative design with a seperate pulley, and i will also work on the LA-56 alternative within this week. is LA-56 easy to get these days?
i just got an idea, the LA-56 hub dia is 25mm, the B4 is 31mm. Associated now has the high torque yellow slipper pads that cover more surface area, compared to the white slipper pad, the yellow goes almost to the hub center. So my point is, why not use LA-56 unmodified, then on the outer end use the B4 plate? yes there is a difference in diameter but with the yellow slipper pad with larger surface area, this might not be an issue. what do you guys think? That means no hacking involved, just plug and play !
