    Default No squat

    Lately I've noticed that when I put my 76 Vette into gear it doesn't seem to do the usual squat that's so common. Nothings been changed so I'm wondering if there might be something going wrong. Does anybody know? Thanks

    RPM has a lot to do with squat or no squat. If it's running at high idle, it will. Once it warms up, it shouldn't.
    Check your tranny fluid level too. It will not lock up too well with low fluid. Or maybe your clutch packs are wearing.
