I have a '65 with decent power (360 to the tire), but I feel that the chassis isn't up to it. I put on subframe connectors, adjustable shocks, the "Shelby" handling mod, but it still feels overpowered and unbalanced. And when I'm going 100mph, I feel like I don't dare corner at all.

I rented an Eclipse the other day while on a business trip, and it can corner with more confidence than my car, although maybe a bit slower. Is it the nature of independent rear suspension, or is there something I can do that will make my inspire confidence?

The most expensive handling mod is the Griggs Racing stuff, but I have no idea if $=value in this case. Any suggestions?
