Dale:
What do you think about a rear sway bar as suggested by 72 Vet Ray?  Do you have one on your car?

Hi  Dale
Im running a 360 rear spring   with a 3/4" Vansteel sway bar
I find it a good set up
But it all depends on what you want out of your car.
 the spring i have is shortened 1" each side , it allows  for good wheel clearance when it comes to running  wider wheel/ tyre combinations

No i dont have a rear bar they tend to produce oversteer and vettes have enough of that . I have a inch and one eighth front bar, on the track that works for me . Id suggest you fit the above kit and drive it if you are happy with that fine ,if not id go to a bigger front bar try that and then a rear bar but i dont think youll need the rear one , just my toughts Ray

Dale:
Thanks everyone for your thoughts and help, I will post the results when I get it installed.

Dale:
Have been trying to decide wether to go for the suggesed 300lb rear spring for a really soft ride or a 340lb to maintain the handeling.
The 300lb will affect the handeling I am told, but from a few comments I have heard the 340lb will still smooth the ride noticeably over the standard leaf spring.
Combined with their gas shocks do you guys think their will be a noticable ride improvement with this set up ie: 340 lb plus gas shocks?
