Hi all,
Saw the recent post in regards to diamond wire tension which brings up another question; what seems to be the ideal spreader rake? Was reading about this subject in my 18 performance manual and according to Phil Berman, there should be 3 different adjustments on the spreader arms. Mine only had two holes drilled in them which were very close together not allowing for much adjustment. I realize it depends on conditions and crew weight but what seems to be the ideal position for the spreaders? Do I need to drill additional holes in the arms?
Thanks,

Back in my H18 days the wisdom was to rake the spreaders back as far as you could. I am pretty sure that drilling extra holes was forbidden in the class rules.
