That makes sense.

So a 5 or 6 inch shock will work, that's good to know. I assume, that Afco makes their "big gun" shock (rear) in these length's? Also, what length spring is used with a shock this length, 10 inch I'd guess?

Madman I'll give you a shout when I'm ready to order them. I need to call you anyway about that glasstek firebird dash.

not enough travel, just pull out the rubber spring isolator.

whatever Madman tells you just do it... He got my car very close and just a little tweaking made it fly.
