Michael,
If you take a look at the Compition Preperation Manual put out by
British
Leyland you will see that Kas Kastner makes the suggestion of using the
later model swing spring for a high performance street or solo race car.
I opted to add a leaf to the original spring and have it dearched 1".
Dont know how this is going to work yet. I still have about a years
worth of work to do on my car before it will see the road.
Have FUN!!
