We've succesfully run this suspension into the mid 10's on 9x28. It does take a stiff shock to get there. 11.50 or slower will usually work with a standard good quality C body shock. Go to sktt 1209 on youtube and find the shock testing video

It all seems to be dictated by power-levels, use of the car, or appearance. My road runner is stock stuff, my WO and 66 Belvedere are 4-link, and my `cuda is aftermarket-stock, and my old wagon was S/S springs[w/air-shocks for adjustment].

I'm running old SS springs, 2" lowering blocks & a pinion snubber and seems fine on the street. I have no idea what it would do with slicks.

In the '70 - '80's ran my '65 Coronet bracket car to 10.50's with SS copies no pinion snubber (never needed one after I built race like springs). Hooked hard. My '"new" '66 Satellite just now has SS springs no snubber, (if the springs are working why need leverage from a snubber? Protect the U joint?). I'll see how the SS springs work. Coil over ladder bar or 4 link sure lighter. Ladder bars worked great on my tube car with the advice of my chassis builder.
