They are a fine product, no doubt. Also, a great company to deal with.
In my mind though, which runs contrary to a lot of folks here, is do I really need them, and should I put together something of my own, and should I spend the money elsewhere on my combination, which is a _________________?

Exactly why I made this thread they are not cheap and I wonder if the money would be more wisely spent elsewhere....

A lot of Races were won on the old Chrysler Super Stock springs he’ll I put a pair on my Boss 302 race car and they worked very good! If my memory serves me right Dave Landrith used the when the AMX super stocks were built at Hurst Performance Research in Maddison Heights, Mi!

Dad and I used them on the Fairlane from back in the 80's. Now it has all Calvert parts.

all the spring does is hold the car up off the ground,,,a leaf spring is a leaf spring,,,however,,,if a spring is too stiff,,as in a multi leaf spring,,,thats where the problem begins. You always want to use the weakest spring that will suspend the car. If a mono wont hold up a heavy car,,,,then look at removing leaves from a multi leaf. If the spring is to stiff,,,, no shock adjustment,pinion angle change is going to overcome the stiff spring,,,,ask me how I know,,,,,just kidding,,,,dont ask

They’re a good product for a good price. I think they are well worth the money. Much more than a $1000 set of lifters.

My experience is a lot of people here don't follow the Builds section of this forum. Probably some who have responded don't know if the car is a 429/4v or a 302/ 2v.
It makes a difference..again in MY opinion.

I have found that the Calvert stuff can actually slow down a not-so-high-powered combo like a 302/2V. Probably be the right stuff on a 429 SCJ though.
