Finally got the car out of storage yesterday, it sat all winter without a motor. It's hard to tell because the front is setting so high, but it looks like the rear (especially the right) might be suffering from a case of the sags. Well see how it looks when I get the new 306/TKO dropped in. If it is saggin in the rear, I'll probably will get some aftermarket control arms and, of course, new springs. I can probably get some stock replacements from Advance (20% employee discount ) pretty cheap, but was wondering if there were any drag specific springs just for the rear. I'd rather not a whole front/rear package, cuz I plan on doing a coil over kit sometime within the next year. Thanks guys.

I have eibach rear drag springs with the airbag(though i've never touched the bag). They transfer weight very nicely and i'm sure with some control arms the car would hook great.

Stock springs work well for drag applications. If you can get a set cheap, I'd start with those.

i'm with him. Use a good set of stock rear springs. I'd also use an air bag, and some cheap stiff shocks, like kyb's or so.
