Roundy round spring questions

[David Clayton]

'67 Chevelle sb w/ac

1. I have read on here that 5" 600 to 650lb springs are what I need on the front and I read some where that some one used 200lbs for the rear(don't know dia.). Is this close?

2. Are the rear springs on a 67 chevelle pig tailed on both ends?

I know these questions have probably been ask before. I'm sorry for reposting.

I'm trying to go cheap It's really hard

Please Help!
Thanks

I think 700-750 for the front and 175 for the rear is what is recommended for a starting point. The rear spring does not have to have pigtails on both ends the flat end will fit in the cup on the frame, and I think the rear springs are 5.5.

Thanks a bunch Brad. Anyone else got any ideas?

When I ran oval track we used camaro/nova stub cars with coild in front adn leafs out back. The tracks we ran on were 20 and 35 degree banking. The higher banking requires higher spring rates to prevent bottoming out. We started with 900# in the right front, 750# in the left front, and 180# in each rear spring. Fine tuning was done with front sway bars from 1 to 1.25 in diameter with adjustable mounting points at the control arm. We never ran a rear sway bar. Total weight was 3200#, 50/50 front to rear and no more than 55% left side bias.
