Didnt I tell you this at the track Dumbass

If you want 1.6s or lower this is the way to go.

Foxbody springs/v8 rears.
70/30s are good enough you still drive it on the street..
Leave rear shocks alone.
Take swaybar off.

Or you go your route and Ill do this to mine and well see who will cut better 60's your money!!!

Why is everyone so shy with running the 90/10's on the street? I ran them with no sway bar and the car felt great. No cornering problems, braking problems, etc.

Ditto. I've driven and riden in cars with 90/10's, nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be. I wouldn't waste my money on 70/30's IMO.

your hooks becuase you only put down 211rwhp jfwy man.

Well i had some spare time today so i snatched the sway bar off.. and looks like the the lowering springs have some kind of rubber spacer in the fronts to keep them higher than they are supposed to ride. any1 know what those are? I state again.. i no ZERO about how drag suspension works.
