yes he did, , at winters one year, won stock with his bars, car left on back bumper, rest is history,

you can rearch a spring with sledge hammer and a anvil. without heating them. by pounding them, you make metal bend. best way, is to lay spring between two anvils and hammer it. takes awhile to do this, but it will not reset back to original shape. we've done this before, old black smiths use...

hi, the comp eng 90/10 shocks work very well. they are adjustable. they make them for A body mopars.

hi, the front spring is 20 " center to center. that makes the bar shorter compared to spring length. the bar has to be shorter for it to function properly and make it work. my bars are shorter on my a body, they work just great!! calvert has designed a great simple rear traction setup. it's...

hi, the dana 60 from a 1967-1972 1/2 ton ford pickup is the best one. it will weigh 32 #more over a 8 3/4. It has passenger car ends and has 3" dia tubes. as for slowing you down? not an issue!! I went with a dana 60 in my 340 duster in 1992. didn't loose any E.T or MPH. the car ran excatly the...

hi, please do not use any traction bars with S/S springs. they will cancel each other out and will bend and twist housing. also, the comment was made about the mopars using caltracs. I guess those stocker and some S/S racers must not know very much as you do!!!! they seem to be very quick and...

hi, you can call calvert. a friend of mine went through this on his dart.they sent him a shorter set of shocks.

hi, remove any preload, then remove bolt that lays on top of spring. then it will work like a street suspension,

it is no myth, I know for a fact the two do not work together. my question, is, what kind of car do you race? how fast, etc? don't tell any whoppers either.

do I know how caltracs work?? just about every NHRA/IHRA stocker with leaf springs has them. I have a set and springs on my car from calvert. and yes, I know how to adjust them and to make the right change for track conditions. as for "binding". the S/S spring is trying to do one thing, while a...

hi, the S/S spring is a traction device unto itself. it is biased front to back and side to side. if you put any traction bar on S/S springs, they will bind and the car will not leave very good. plus, you'll bend and /or twist the housing. been there, done that. as for cornering, my car seems to...

hi, the caltrac system is the best way to go.it's simple, and it flat works! as for how fast? the A/SA record in NHRA is 9.98 on a 9"x30 " tire and caltrac system. the caltrac will produce faster 60' times and be very consistent. calvert sells a complete system, bars, rancho 9 way shocks...

hi, your dart has the 20 " front segment springs. they can be used when you move your springs inboard. you will have to determine ride height. the calvert springs come in various ride heights,

I didn't say FAA license, you have to take same FAA physical as a pilot has to take! I don't think you'll go in the 9 sec zone either! have doubts on 10;s also. to be legal for drag racing, is serious business. If the roll bar or cage is not installed or done correctly, the tech guys will reject...

hi, do your self a favor, buy a NHRA rule book. then you what requirements you need to meet. 11.49 is the break for a roll bar. not 11.99. another thing, a roll cage will require a window net. to run 9.99, you have to have a certified chassis. has to be recertified every three years. roll cage...

If you use a multi leaf spring, go with the 5 leaf. the calvert bar is a poor mans 4 link,therefore it requires a stiff front half leaf spring. the S/Ssprings do not work well with a bar, it causes the rear end housing to twist and toe in. been there, done that!! the calvert mono leafs are not...
