275?

Matts94Z28 03-14-2010 04:56 AM

Yep, I had the option of 275, 300, and 315 pound spring rates. 275 is commonly used by f-body guys for drag racing applications, so I went with it.

Ordered the Strange set-up btw.

What do you guys usually run?

1iron 03-14-2010 09:10 PM

I have 175 but I think 150 is more common.

Matts94Z28 03-14-2010 09:15 PM

Wow! Hell it seems to work great for you though. :bigthumb:

That soft front end is nice with all the pot holes around here. Stock fuel lines = street car.

I'll be there with my 3700lb beast on a trailer. 78 miles each way is too far for me.
