...and (and this never would have occurred to me) in-ground dynos used
by shops for emissions. I've got the DMCH shocks/springs installed on
mine and when my car was placed on the dyno, there was about 1/8"
clearance between the car and the arms on the hydraulic lift. Removing
the arms on the lift brought the total clearance up to /maybe/ 3/8",
which was enough, but it was totally the shop manager's call on that
one. Finding a shop with an
external/portable/not-an-integral-part-of-the-floor dyno (I'm up on my
terminology, yes?) is likely one way around this. Just an FYI.
