Default Re: Calvert split mono leaf springs?

If it's going to be a 302/2V then I would just go with a set of good, old fashioned Lakewood slapper bars or a reasonable facsimile and the stock springs to get started.

Here's our local 302 2V King. Caltracs in the top hole and what seem to be split mono springs. I don't know his rear shock package but he doesn't spend a lot of time under the car.
I run QA-1 double adjustable rear shocks and they are difficult for me to tune. Power is a 302 4V.

I run a 305 chev 2bbl in a 3650 lbs car. I use Lakewood slappers with Lakewood adjustable shocks set a 50/50, monoleaf stock springs. Works great, never spins, consistent 60 foot times.
