CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Thoughts on Moroso Trick Springs (Foxbody)

The last time I checked the lightest front springs Moroso had was 217lbs and I have had to cut most every Moroso spring that I've installed which is quite a few. I have successfully used 170lb front springs on two or three stockers with around 1600lb front end weight. Check with Santuff for the correct spring for your application, you will need to know your front end weight. They have 16" and 18" springs, the only 18" springs I've installed were in an early Corvette stocker and they had to be cut.

With the rotation of the drive shaft trying to lift the right rear off the ground and planting the left rear some type device usually has to used on the rear coil spring cars to counter act this problem, an anti roll bar is the most efficient way to do it as you don't have to carry any preload down track after the car has launched.

Just my unsolicited opinion after reading this thread.
