Im in the middle of trying to get my 65 car done and I need some help with trying to figure out which way to go... The main question is what are the specs for a SS car? Can it be 4 linked? Whats the biggest size tire for this car? Also do you have to run torsion bars for this class? Can someone guide me in right direction who builds A990 SS cars...

Rob

The front suspension has to be stock. Rear suspension can be coil over four link. Tires 14.5 in Super Stock, but some nostalgia classes require a 10.5 tire
Mine is Rear leaf with four link. Works fine for low 9s, if you are going mid 8s better have coil over rear springs for adjustability, and a spare motor.

My car is 4 linked already with coil overs.. The front suspension was going to Magnum Force but I'm leaning towards modified K frame. I heard these SS guys are running some serious front shocks in the car thats what help the car leave the way that they do..

Hey Casey I have to put back the stock firewall in the car. The previous owner changed the firewall I guess to make it look clean.. I'll have to find a stock firewall...
