There isn't a set answer, every car will be different as it depends on a lot of factors. How high and how far back is the CG? How much rake? How much rear travel? How much does the car weigh? Bias? Is the suspension going to be set up with 50% up travel? 60%?
Without a lot of CAD work, this is kind of a guessing game. The more you have built, the better guesser you are. This is the first buggy I have built with anti-dive, since it is a lot lighter in the front I'm going with less anti-dive than I would for a truck. Since I have trucks fairly well dialed in and I know roughly what the differences in the specs are between the buggy and the truck it should be close. If not, thats where some tricky shock valving some into play.
