Hey all, I just found this site the other day..and thought it was pretty cool. I was hoping to get a little bit of info from you guys about suspensions, since in the past ive only done body work, and engine work. I have a 76 Nova, its more on the drag side then road race. But id like to make it a Pro-Touring car in the near future (soon as I save up the money).

I already have planned out what ill be running far as engine, trans, rear end, what size rims & brakes I want to run...and all the other stuff far as body and all. But I was wonder, in your opinion, what I should run far as front suspension, and rear suspension. I havent had alot of time to look over the forum, but I see you guys have good opinions on the 3 link set up. My nova being a 4th gen, doesnt make it easy to find a suspension kit....however I am going to build a tubular chassis to set the body on. I still need some opinions on what to run for the front and rear tho.

Any help at all would be appreciated.

No body has any opinions on different supsensions?

well, like you said many guys on here have a love for the three link. what it really comes down to is what you want to use the car for, is it going to see a lot of track time? is it a badass daily driver? I would say look at a modified camaro front suspension, perhaps a wayne due subframe, browse the suspension section for ideas. For the rear you have tons of options. 3 link, 4 link, IRS, modded leaf spring...etc Im sure others can interject their opinions.

The car, when built, will see some track time. It will also see a good bit of road time...but mostly just something to drive on the weekends or something.
