I have gotten to the point where I need to consider the spring rate. The rear trailing arms are in with true 5 lug hubs, 911 brakes, and some reinforcement. The shocks are bilstein sport. It is a road car with 16 in wheels running no flares so the tire size will be 205.
I have the original springs from the 1972 four cylinder donor. So ladies and gentlemen, please help me with shopping, or not shopping. Thank you! |

Front
23mm torsions 22mm sway bar Bilstein sports Rear 200# on Coleman adjusters Koni yellow adj. No sway bar Elephant bronze on both ends Obviously I like a kart. But that 3.6 is heavy and the 200's are the minimum I want back there. The "featherweight" 2.7 was good with #180's but they weren't stiff enough for the 3.6. The LSD has changed things and either I'll go up to 250's or add a small rear sway bar to dial in a little bit more stiffness... just not at the same time. Good Luck |
