yeah I'm not ready to shell out $800+ for momo-leafs yet. No reason this car shouldn't sixty foot in the 1.50-1.55 range. It's just been aweful lately. Last year I only had a few in the 1.60's and if I use the convert right (slamming it off idle) it blows the tires up. A buddy told me my ass end lifts too much... I checked front end travel and the rear shocks are the right lenght. If I can get it to 60 foot around 1.52 I should be really close to 11.0's. Once I get that sorted out I'll add the gazzz.

$350ish for the springs plus $350ish for the bars, soo I'm $100 off. Maybe I'll buy the bars one month then the springs I am going to spray this car this year. What do you need to do w/ the longer front segment?

In my books, their customer support and service is next to none.

Unless they changed the shock mount I think the kit in the link is a knock off. The ones in the photo have shock mount tabs welded on, mine are all one piece, cut then broke.

I sent Calvert a link, so we'll see.

If you have more time then money. You can also build your own set with parts from Speedway Motors for under $150.

So, I just went to Calvert's website, and they're $339 direct from them! Why in the world would you go through Ebay and pay the same price? My advice: call Calvert and talk with them direct.... Those guys will help you with everything you need. When I bought my setup from them, they spent a good amount of time with me on the phone, both at time of order, then when I was installing I had a few questions and they were happy to help me out then as well.
