Thanks guys! I know the suspension isn't optimal by any stretch...but MUCH BETTER than it use to be! For a 3,500 lb. street car,I think 1.52-1.56 short times are decent. Can they be better?..I'm sure they can! I'm currently running Calvert 90/10's in the front..with NO sway bar. Out back are Rancho RS9000's and 002/003 SS springs..with NO additional clamping. The frame rails are tied,and I run a 4:56 gear...and Dynamic 9.5" converter,that flashes to 45-4600rpm. As far as chassis improvements..I'm open to ALL your ideas,and opinions! I have thought about having one of my friends set up a ladder bar system..in the near future!




Wow Randy your car is set up pretty close to the way mine is.except i have the cheep summit 90/10 shocks on the front and some after market rear shocks for a dodge ramcharger.I am using 4.30 gears and some M/T 275/60/15 et drag radials. My best 60 FT has only been a 1.54 but most of the time i am in the upper 1.5 second range.I am guessing my 73 dart weighs around 3500 with me in it.I just put two Holley 750Dp on my car so i hope it runs faster next time out.But with the new engine mods and some tuning i think you can hit your goals and maybe more.
