How big of an improvement? Is your suspension stock? What feels different?

I don't have traction problems (right now) I've got an AOD with stock gears, will they still benefit me?

yes, the biggest thing i noticed was how stiff the rear was. it didnt flex that much and i was able to allow my car to plant te power on the street with my 410s and 3k stall.

i cant wait to see how this car feels with the cage,subs and full drag suspension
