I have a '66 coupe with a stock suspension(front and rear). I was wondering if anyone had any good recommendations for a strip/street racing qulity aftermarket supspension kit. Thanks for all replies.

A really good thing to do is replace all of ur ruber parts with polygraphite. I did this and it really helpe to make the car stable. It is a harder compound than the rubber and u never have to replace it. I got my kit from pst u might want to check them out. www.p-s-t.com. As for the rest of the car i have lakewood 90/10 drag shocks on the front and 50/50 on the back. I also use a set of moroso drag springs. I don't now if u wan to take it that far but at least check out the polygraphite kits i recomnd those for any type of car. I good set of traction bars are also cheap and help alot. Look for those from www.summitracing.com

I went with Global West stuff in my car: www.globalwest.net

These guys have trick stuff too: www.cobraautomotive.com

I think these two have the most well-sorted stuff out there. Good luck!
