I am looking to purchase a Rear Coilover Conversion Kit to work with my rear Koni shocks.... Anyone have a set they would like to sell?

If I cant find a used setup are the Ground Control Kits any good?

Thanks,

Steve

Sorry, the one I have for sale is on a 944 currently. smile.gif

I like the kit, and have used it on a 944 and a 951. For ~$200 it seems like a nice addition. If memory serves, you can get the sleeves and perches from Paragon Racing as well... but I don't know if they have the right diameter for your shock application.

Also... What rear spring rate would you guys recommend for a 914 Old School SBC V8 Conversion?

The engine will have aluminum heads...

Thanks,

Steve

Steve,

If your rear Konis are the gas adjustable sets I can put together a coil package with a variety of rear spring types and spring rates.

I use the 150lb "barrel" style rear spring on my 914-6 conversion. I'd guess you would need at least a 175lb rear spring.

What front torsion bar are you using and what are you planning to use the car for? All street or some track?
