Hey guys and gals,

I'm setting my car up for street/racing use and i'm not sure about the spring rates and sway bar combo's on the rear.

andyrew, i think, has 180lb springs and no swaybar. he gets around the AX track pretty well. but isn't 180 a bit stiff for street or is it OK with the added V8 weight?

i know going too spring stiff will make streetability low.

keeping stock springs but going large on a sway bar will keep her flat on the ground and retain some spring for streets.

i was thinking of installing adjustable perchs to maintain ride height and keeping stock springs. then getting a rear sway bar and calling it good.


thoughts?
