I have a 79' malibu with a 350. The car spins unbelievably bad. I want to get drag springs, shocks and adjustable control arms. It has 4.11 posi, 3500 stall, with 275/60/15 ET Streets. It has a turbo 350. I shift at 6500. I dont know what parts to get. I just need some help to set the car up. Any suggestions would be apperitiated.

I have a sway bar out of a Cutlass and No-Hop bars. They work amazing. Mine will spin the 275s like crazy too, but there is no wheel hop. Just need stickies.

I already have a rear sway bar. I dont have a problem with the car wheel hopping, It just spins all the way through first and part of second. I was thinking about buying one of the drag suspension kits from Jegs for $730. It comes with pertty much everything I want, springs, adjustable shocks and control arms. I just didnt know what would be the best rate springs and shocks.
