Danny, you just need to hook up that clutch pedal that we talked about and you will get your front tires off the ground! LOL.

Also, be mindful of ride height when ordering the split monos. We started with the stock ride height,but like the lower ride height so we changed the back halfs to lower the car. We still have the standard height back halfs in the garage. The springs work well.
The Calvert stuff is very good. certainly the norm in the stockers. I have seen slappers on some notable cars too, but given the choice, I would go with the Calvert stuff.

Also, not sure of your tire size, but watch the belly of the inside of the slick. We have 9 x 29.5s on 8 inch rims and we had to really massage everything. It still rubs. This is an issue with most any mono spring by the way. Just something to really look at. Jim
