I Have A 91 Firebird That Has A 330 Hp Vortec That Runs Ihra F-crate Motor Stock .i Have The Stock Rear Springs With The Rubber Pad On Top Of The Spring.i Have A S&w Torque Arm And A Lakewood Panhard Bar.i Tried This Setup With The Air Bags And The Car Twisted Very Bad And Was Inconsistent On The Launch. I Then Removed The Air Bags And Installed A Set Of Joe Russell Adjustable Traction Bars And That Took Care Of The Twist And Inconsistency On The Launch. I Ran This Past Weekend At Carolina Drag Ways Ihra Meet And My 60 Ft Was 1.37 And My Time Was 6.78. I Would Not Even Consider Racing My Car Without The Joe Russell Bars. I Forgot To Mention The Rear Shocks Are 50-50 Lakewood. Hope This Helps.
