3400# SS Springs in a '67 B-Body?
« on: August 14, 2008, 01:32:08 PM »

Would this work out well or OK for a 440 street/strip car?  I might be able to get the car down to 3500 pounds with my plans for it: heater/AC unit removed, fiberglass hood, fiberglass front bumper, etc...

I'll be running 9" DOT slicks or drag radials on cop rims.

Thanks for any advise!

3400 lb springs might be a little light for a street car ...   the 3800 lb super stock springs were perfect for ride quality and stance on my 64 b body ...
