Banged my head under the hood the other day and had a vision :drive:..... I ended up here.

Picked up a 1968 RS/SS, a few years back, did some add on's past few years and been enjoying it, has 502 BBC, in the back sits a Ford 9", TH 400 auto. The car now shares a bit of love for everything classic look, Street, Strip, Front suspension and handles good! However I think its time to put her into a Pro touring direction, change to a manual transmission, Wheels/Tires and got to do something in the back for suspension set up and drive. Just going to have a peak at some iron on the forums get some ideas.

Hmm sounds familiar Detroit speed has some really nice stuff but to quote Kyle Tucker their stuff is more developed for autocross use than everyday street use don't get me wrong it's still a great street setup

Welcome to the forum Dave. The car looks and sounds like a killer so far!


Take a look at the video below for suspension ideas!
