Moroso trick front and rear drag springs. lakewood 50/50's in rear and 90/10's up front. qa1 k-member and a arms. no sway bar. would i be torque boxes already welded, already have sub frames and lca's. would i be better off the 70/30's up front. how about leaving the sway bar on? thanx for the info.

Leave the sway bar ON for street/daily driving....90/10's are not really streetable either, but what I consider streetable may be different to a hard core drag racer... ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

so 70/30's would be a better bet. how big of a diff. is there from the 2. is it really that noticeable

As long as you know the limitations it should be ok. On my 87GT I had Lakewood 90/10's, 4 cylinder front springs, no sway bar, and BBK control arms. It handled like a school bus but was fine for normal driving. I kept things very easy on the street. I would never go back to that type of set-up for a street car since my willingness to sacrifice for the good of racing has dramatically decreased.
Cheers
