Body roll part 2....see!!!

I have been following this thread with some interest. I find it hard to imagine that a sbc would create such a problem.
I think that if you go back to before anything was changed on the car-was there a problem with body roll? If the answer is no then-what has changed? You relocated the leaf springs and rear shocks and reused the existing parts. Now we have a problem-yes? Two shocks are not going to fix it-I doubt that a anti-roll will totally cure it! So,I think we are back to shocks and springs- maybe not in that order- I don't know how you checked those-but I think that is where the problem lies. I would suggest that you talk to the spring mfg and see what they think. I am of the opinion that replacing springs and shocks will take care of your problem. I have done the same on a bbc camaro and did not have that problem.Just my 2 cents-hope that helped with troubleshooting your car-good luck!
