Thats what I'm thinking, I need stiffer springs to control the forward/backwards weight transfer and pitching motion that sways wont help with, and sway bars to further control side to side, adjustable shocks to keep it all under control once I arrive at a good spring/sway bar balance.
the 460 is a boat anchor with iron block and heads, it would be nice to drop a bunch of weight off the front end with aluminum heads and block, but thats a project that requires more funds than I have right now.
