    65-66 leaf springs

    oh my bad I thought you were talking about having to cut the bolts not the bushing mounts. How does having adj strut rods affect the car? Are they worth the money to put in the car?

    65-66 rear sway bars

    That's kinda what I'm thinking. The car is not planned to be a dragster or a road course racer, just a fun fairly quick weekend fair weather family cruiser with maybe an occassional quick sprint.:rlaugh: It came with the grab a trak suspension kit that I ordered , the rear leafs are 41/2 mid...

    Any ideas?

    That's always frustrating when you pay someone to do a job and instead of taking their time to get it right they just half arse it to get it out of the shop.

    65-66 rear sway bars

    Did your car previously have one or did you add the sway bar? I can't accurately say if my exhaust will be in the way or not yet since the car is not sitting with the weight on the springs as the instructions say. I just swapped out my leafs and still have to put on my new shocks and replace...

    65-66 rear sway bars

    How many of you guys are running them, and what issues have you had with installing them? Not sure If I want to install mine yet as it looks like I'll have exhaust clearance issues. All opinions/advice welcome.

    Danica or Milka?

    I could care less about either one of them as a race car driver or personality. But to me Danica wins on looks!!!!!!!!

    65-66 leaf springs

    Well I got the bolts cut out and the new leaf springs hung yesterday thanks to my mother/father-in-law buying me a sawsall. I only destroyed one blade and that was because the blade kicked back on me while cutting beside the frame between the leaf spring and broke it. I used some blades that...

    289 or 302?

    HUh? that's weird then cause none of the plugs listed for a 68 302 were the same as the ones listed for the 70 351w heads. I had to take a plug from each head with me and trace the numbers on it as to which eng's it was made for to figure out what plug I had and to be safe I had a local eng...

    289 or 302?

    I wouldn't go solely of the date stamp on the heads cause someone could've swapped out the heads. When I bought my car I was told it had a 68 302 w/ original rebuilt c4, when doing a tune up to see if I could get it to run I discovered it had 70 351w heads when I was swapping plugs. :shrug:

    65-66 leaf springs

    tweet66, Are you saying you used a cutoff wheel to take the heads off then used a sawsall to cut the bolt on both sides of the leaf spring? Then I assume you had to drive the piece of bolt shank out of the frame correct?
