Hello,
I'm taking a vehicle dynamics class at Texas A&M and I'm analyzing my '70 Chevelle for a project. I'm trying to find a good estimate of the center of gravity vertical height location for the static case. (The CG is located 48.47" behind the front wheels.) My Chevelle is a 355, th350, and 10 bolt with bucket seats, the suspension is replacement stock. I would guess that the CG height is near the center of the engine, which I would guess to be about 22" off the ground. Does anyone have a better estimate or would you believe this? Thanks alot,
