torsion bars

[ir3333]

anybody running the Mancini .920 torsion bars in their small block A body?
li'd like to stiffen my Duster suspension up a bit..i had the .890 383 bars in my Dart and even they weren't very firm.

I have a set of Firm Feel 0.940” bars in a slant six (50 pounds less than SB) car with a 1 ¼” Addco bar with modified mounting methods so it works, and the car corners flat, no wallowing or hard braking front end diving. This size bar provides a comfortable stable ride with no harshness that is a bit softer feeling than my 2007 300C AWD.

I had the 920's for ten years. They were OK, not stiff at all. I just upgraded to Firm Feel's 1.06 inch bars. They match up spring rate wise to the left SS leaf spring.

I have Just Suspension 1" bars on my 318 powered Duster. Not harsh at all. In fact, if I do anything I'll be upgrading again to 1.03 or 1.06". I don't think I'd mess with a .92, just go straight to a 1" bar.

Hey Al the kyb front shocks made a huge diff on the front of my dart food for thought.
