Re: (Ti3d in)
No it is actually backhalfed..............it has independent rear suspension.
We are using Strange spindlemounts in the rear, like what you would see on the FRONT of a prostock. I am not exactly happy with the rear suspension at this point.
I hope to change it to Omi-Power, but it will have to be custom pieces. That is going to be addressed soon.
I pulled a set of penske's off the front when I rebuilt it, and put Omni-Powers on the car because their ride height adjustability without preloading the spring, and the price was nice and cheap. I sold the penske's for ALOT more than we paid for the Omni-Power's.
Some people said I was stupid for getting rid of the penske struts..................I am still EXTREMELY happy with my decision

I know most people are running Omni Powers but are you all running the standard 18k rear 10k front or custom spring rates??
If you are running custom rates do tell!!!

What would 18K convert to lbs rating for springs?
Just curious if it would be possible..well comfortable to drive the drag Omni's on a weekend warrior..sorry to get off topic.

Roughly 900-1000lbs, not the most comfortable thing on the street, but it's a sacrifice you have to make if you want the best stuff for the track.

Re: What kind of suspension are you guys running? (turbo-tuner)
12K = 12 X 56 = 672lbs spring.
I think 56 is the correct # to multiply by.........it has been awhile.
