That would help the 60 a bit and get you quicker into the powerband. Car sounds great BTW
    Many people, including the techs at Wolfe and Madman have suggested that I stick with the stock springs (in the rear) with the Wolfe solid rear swaybar that I'm using. The fronts will most likely get QA1s and a 275lb. spring once funds permit. Still have the tuning, cage, harness, trans blanket, etc. etc. to do. Ugh!

    My rear springs are stock spring rate, but the guy at NAPA told me that somewhere down the line the replacement springs switched to a progressive winding. Who knows, maybe the stock ones get too weak too soon.

    Here they are and YIKES! They went up in price!
