Probably a dumb V6 spring question but
I want to be able to hook good at the track with my 3rd gen. its a bolt on 305 car with a stall, 9 bolt 3.27 rear and lots of weight reduction. Would it be worth the effort to change to V6 springs on all four corners? its not a daily driver if that helps any. Im just looking for cheap solutions to hook at the track. i want to be able to hook like a mofo

Far easier to swap springs on the front of a 3rd gen than a 4th gen.....I say go for it.

V6 springs would be way to soft to be up front

V6 springs on the front only.
Try and find WS6 springs for the rear. I think I have a set actually.
