Spring options with Hal QA1 - R's I have an Iron 408 and think the Hal springs are too soft. I have BMR lowering spring on it now and was thinking about using them with modified perches on a set of QA1 R's. How do you feel this would work. I street drive the car as well as race it. Any input would be appreciated. |
When I had my old 422ci iron block and Hal front springs and shocks, the car was too low. And the airdam would scrape a lot. You can run lowering springs just make sure the car is not too low in front. If it is put stock springs back in the front. |

did you get that thing into the 10's yet??? |
It ran 11.17@123 in street trim with th efull interior and with 17's on it and then the rear end let go. That was with a 3000' DA. I am putting a 12 bolt in tomorrow and should have new times next week and hopefully it will be a little cooler. |
Qa1 also makes 300 and 325 lb springs if the 275's are to soft. |
My stock springs were 294lbs. I went with the 325 springs since I added 85lbs of turbo weight. |
