so you say " at speeds of 110-115mph the Crown seat will lift up and float with me sitting still driving the car "
that is too funny ,,,
seriously , I got a low pressure manometer and mounted it to dashboard of my V8 ,, and then drove around taking readings of pressure around different spots on the car .
not a great idea , trying to drive and read the instrument ,, but ,,I wanted to know why interior always gets heat from engine ,,
turns out that with windows down interior is lowest pressure area on car , area under car and behind rear window are higher .
Ted Trevor recommended driving with windows up and foot well vents open ,, this will allow air to flow into the interior and out thru engine area..
yeah , I don't like driving with the windows up ..but a little , very little, pressure over a large area like the crown seat cover will generate a lot of force , enough to pick you up .. so the obvious solution is for you to do what the rest of us have done ,,, GAIN WEIGHT ,,
