What engine are you running? The weight of the motor is a variable that you want to consider.

I have a small block with aluminum heads and intake on a 71 Satellite and I run 1.03 torsion bars on that. 1.03 at 41" long is about 205/lbs/inch spring rate. If you have a big block you might want something a little stronger.
