      4 link question

      I have been reading this forum or awhile and got a ton of great information from it. My name is Scot and I hope you guys and girls can help me with something.



      I have a 71 Nova SS with a Procharger 434 SB, built M22, Moser 9", Detroit speed mini tubbed rear and currently Detroit speed leaf spring kit. I am looking to get a protouring four link kit for my rear, however I am worried about the HP rating. Currently I have 725 to the rear and may run a DOT slick. I am not regularly running the 1/4 mile but would like too once or twice. What do you recommend? Thank you.

      I would but it's three times the price of the others. I would like to keep the product price around 2K if possible.

      That's because it's a better product. The other kits are very simplistic. I would stick with springs before going cheap on a 4-link.

      Do you think a Ride Tech will take 750hp at the wheels?

      Nitrous fed 582 Big Block using our mini-tubbed 4-link kit.
      Best ET 9.84
      Best 60 foot 1.42
      Best MPH 139.88







      This same kit also posted .96g skid pad and 48 mph slalom numbers(255 & 295 tires). That was actually the Yellow '70 Nova we took to the first Super Chevy Handling Challenge.

      I would think the ride tech would hold that power. They do rec that people that will be running slick bolt and also weld the cradle in place. Also they want you to stitch weld them in a 1in at a time if using stock frame rails becaise they are thin.

      I have had great customer service with ride tech so I would give them a call and ask the tech people.

      BTW I have the ride tech 4-link in my 79 camaro with their coil overs and just purchased the tru turn for my nova. they make great products
