Rodpwnz replied to the thread Suspension soft?.I have the GT500 dampers on my car now with 240F/850R FP springs, and have been very happy with this setup as a comfortable street and casual track day car. These spring rates are also similar/better than the GT350R, so I would consider it prime... (see full post)-
kevfrank replied to the thread S550 Stock-ish.@Bill Pemberton Do you remember the max negative front camber you got with the MM camber plates? And were you on lowering springs? At recent events at Road Atlanta, I feel less confident with the brakes into 10A (after the long back straight). I... (see full post)-
Completely understand, there are many folks with M&M Camber plates and as I mentioned I had a set on my GT 350, and I forgot that I also had a set on my Boss 302 LS. If you are going to Road Atlanta do check those pads as you will be eating them...

On the front I've run 185 (stock), 220, 275, 450, 500 #/in springs. I've got a pair of 400's in my spring box. Every increase in front spring rate has given a step in performance. If I were tuning this car for Ford, I'd probably have 300's on the...

Back when I had my 2017 GT 350 I set it up similar to yours, though I had a bit sticker tires ( R8 Purple Crack Rubber ) ,haha. I also was running a set of G-Loc racing pads ( R18s in front and R10s in the rear ), but the car is very capable...
