What rear sway bar are you using, looks like it's leaving pretty flat/level 8)

Sorry - Been so long I can't remember who I bought it from.

This is stock suspension?!?!?!? :shock:

Yeah every G body has a Ford 9 inch with extended ears and a anti-sway bar just like that!

Even the brake lines are aftermarket!

Of course it is, you just had to check the right boxes when ordering.

All the suspension parts (except the sway) are stock right down to the shocks. The axle is a Moser bolt-in. I did have the sway on the GM housing before switching.
I made the brake lines, the old ones were just to rusty.
Sorry 1Bad4558 I kinda stepped on your post.

I suggest to everyone. Get adjustable upper and lower control arms. Then you can set your pinion angle and instant center.

Our cars work, just need to set the suspension.

AGREED!!
These cars can be made to work very well at the track with minimal rear suspension work. I took mine to the first t&t at our local track this past Saturday.
1.42 60' times with adjustable uppers and lowers and an anti roll bar. Stock springs and a 40 dollar set of Gabriel shocks.

It's fine. I just run my car in an 1/8 mile race and it ran a 7.76 with all stock suspension.

Your putting out about 360 BHP and should convert to about a 12.19 1/4 mi. Did you hook?? you should of had about a 1.63 60 ft.

Very nice. What was your 60 ft. That sounds very similar to my 425 SBO plans. I gunning for a 9.6 in the 1/8 this year with my 7.8 to 1 Olds 350 :lol:.
