Will 4 Cyl. springs up front help 60 ft. times?

I've heard this but, is it worth doing?
Thanks

I thought it was 4 cyl. springs in the rear......

I put 4 banger springs in the front of mine and yes they do help. You get more suspension travel which puts more weight on the rear wheels. Some people put them in the rear also.

I am now pulling low 1.6 60ft's with removed front sway bar, 4 banger springs in the front, sub frame connectors, Granatelli control arms and Hoosier 26X8 slicks.

I used to run them up front, and they worked great. I got numerous mid-high 1.5 60fts outta them when the car was going low 12's.

Keep your stock rear springs in there, and get a quality set of control arms.
