Clat trac vs. SS springs vs 4 link
This is my sons Dart and we did what you are wanting to do. Its all stock suspension and has SS springs and thats it. No roll bar (yet) and it has frame connectors we installed last year. Its a street car he drives the 90 mile round trip to the track. Its what we call a budget car.........built on a tight budget and I told him to just put the SS springs on and try it. Its no world record holder but for a mild street/strip car on a budget it works fine. With the .030 over 400 its run 11.50's @ 116 with a best 60 of 1.61 on M/T 28 x 9 slicks. It has a Dynamic 9.5 convertor that flashes to 4200. We plan to work on the 60's this year a little but nothing fancy just some pinion angle adjustments and so forth. I would like to get the 60's in the 1.50's as that would be pretty good to me for the setup. And you can always add Caltracs later when you get the cash as I hear they work good. Ron
