Re: Headers and.......

[Dave64 <lt7dave@xxxxxxxxx>]

Merwin,

I'm planning to put Mopar Performance SS springs on my '64 Belvedere this spring.  According to Summitt's website, they will fit our cars, but we also need the longer front mounting brackets.  Might need longer shocks, too.  I'm putting a set of drag shocks on the rear anyway - those are the longer ones if I remember correctly.  Several other guys in our email group have put those springs on their B bodies and are happy with them.

Dave
