My friend had one of the old Dodge Material S/S 65 Dodges. It had the springs mounted as stock. The front of the ladder bar was on a roller similar to the current rear leaf spring sliders. It worked well in the low 10 second range with 10.5 tires. That being said you need decent shocks either way? Makes absolutely no sense not to convert to coil overs.

I already have double adjustable Viking shocks on the rear, and some extra split mono rear segments from experimenting with ride height. Adding coil overs would just be unnecessary expense and work.
I'm trying to relocate the instant center, in that setup the IC would still be the spring eye not the ladder bar eye. Only thing the ladder bars would do is act as a slapper bar, which probably worked
