Ladder bar w/floater or Caltracs

This is my opinion based on my experience only.

I have the entire CalTrac setup, adjustable shocks and all on my Duster, 360/904/8.75/11.5x29.5, runs 10.50's. It works pretty good but at the tracks I race at, it's not great. I had SS springs on it before, what it did was calm the car down and made it more consistent, not any quicker.

It is adjustable though which in my view makes it better than ladder bars.

All said though I'm finishing up a four link car and after having driven several and seen the difference I highly recommend saving your money and just doing the four link. Your car will probably pickup at least .5 seconds, some I've seen picked up as much as .7 after nothing more than the backhalf, even though the car was heavier afterward.

The CalTracs were originally developed for NHRA Stocker type cars that have to keep the original suspension configuration. And although they work well in their intended application if you don't have to keep the leaf springs then I wouldn't. I did on my Duster because it's an original 340 4 speed car and I didn't want to cut it up.

If yours isn't then I say cut away, you'll be a lot happier in the long run.

Good Luck.
