[DeTomaso] Dynojet Question

Clay,

	You want to run it in the gear that has the closest ratio to 1:1.  For most
Panteras this will be 3rd gear which has a ration of 1.04:1.  Look at the
tag on the side of your ZF and it'll list the ratios.

	The last time I ran mine on a chassis dyno, we hooked the safety straps to
the rear sway bar near the mounts.  Don't hook to the lower control arms,
they might bend!

I am new to chassis dyno (Never even seen one) and will have my car done in
the morning for a regular dyno and carb adjustments if needed.

I had a couple of questions:

1.  Is third gear the best gear to run HP/Torque?  I seem to recall reading
this due to ratios on the ZF.
2.  Where exactly should I put the safety strap attachments at the rear of
the car?

Is there anything else I need to know or do?

Thanks
Clay
