Here you go:
• Firm Feel or Magnum Force Tubular upper control arms • Ditch the KYB's and put in a set of Edelbrock Performer IAS shocks • Go to the 1 3/8 front sway bar from Hotchkis and a 7/8 rear bar • ABSOLUTELY install sub-frame connectors and if you can, get the XV motorsports chassis stiffening kit. It includes inner fender well braces and under hood shock tower brace. • You've already got the FF stage 3 steering box with Fast ratio idler and pitman arms - good move. • Minimum of .96 on the torsion bars. This will help you out A LOT.
This is the set up I had on my 69 RR and worked great. On the road manners were great, and when pushed it was predictable. The Edelbrocks ride really well, especially on cracked/ older roads. Anything to lighten the front end up will help too, aluminum water pump housing, heads, etc. I ran the Flaming river manual box on mine.
