T-bars vs Stored energy

8.60's -Is that 1/8 mile??? >>> JOKING

Seriously, Howard. I've been doing this **** a long time, and studying what the early masters did with these cars and parts proves beyond the shadow of doubt that the rear suspension, just as Chrysler designed it is nearly perfect for what we do.
Another case in point are the F.A.S.T cars that are now running single digits at nearly 4000 pounds wet using only a pinion snubber and 7 inch wide Bias Ply's.
I agree about clamping the front segments, and the longer shocks...but any other modification to a Mopar rear suspension to go anything less than 8's (in the quarter) is a complete waste of time and money. Get back to the basics, and all your problems will disappear!
