street cars with a drag suspension come on in!
 

im thinking of selling my strano bars that i haven't installed yet and im thinking when i go to buy my midwest fab 9 in a few months im going to go with his drag bar and the rest of the setup he has too offer. so i want to know for you guys that i running a drag bar and shocks and springs how are they for the street?

list your setup please. also, are they too bouncey,how are they compared to the crappy stock setup. i like to drive on the street a lot and not just the drag strip so i don't want too much of a boaty feel. i was going to go with a strano setup with his shocks and springs but that would affect ET's. so recommend me a good streetable drag setup that i can adjust at and off the strip thanks! btw, are you guys running a front sway bar with a drag bar and if so which one?

a drag bar will make the rear end super slide happy when trying to exit corners, the only reason i dont have one. if and when you get it dont try to power out into traffic or something unless your going strait.

sounds like watching your throttle just like getting caught in the rain and taking corners

I pretty much have the exact setup your asking about. Problem is it's not in the car yet!!!

From my upgrades last year I can tell you all the rod ends are LOUD!

If your run adjustable shocks (Strange,QA1,Afco...) with a good spring then I don't think it'll be a huge difference. Obviously it won't handle corners like a Ferrari.

I don't run a front sway bar and the front end can move a little bit on bumps. I'm guessing it'll be worse now that the nose is quite a bit lighter.

The term "streetable" has basically become open ended because folks like myself will throw a race car with tags on the road and call it streetable. I would determine what you want the car to handle like on the street and go from there. I personally don't care about ride quality so my suspension is 100% rod end with DA shocks up front and SA out back with a Spool, manual brakes and steering.

Not sure if I answered any of your questions or not.

That's for sure! A few other suggestions for you would be seeing how you are looking into a aftermarket rear end. I would suggest going with a stock spring in the rear and like mention above. I would highly suggest a good adjustable rear shock. And go with a coil over in the front for weight transfer reasons (300 lbs spring). Below is a link to show you what I am explaining.
