I have the full negative roll front end (tubular arms, 11" F-body brakes, beefy springs (maybe the big block or race springs), 1 1/8 sway bar, and Koni adjustable shocks; and in back I have my 1967 untouched springs and upper arms along with GW lower tubular arm and Koni shocks. I've been at Willow Springs race track with the Chevelle and the car felt great. A very slight understeer, but fixable with the gas pedal. I did a self timed lap and got 1:48, which is an 83 mph average. Speeds in Turn 2 (a high speed right hand sweeper) work out to 1.03G average (470 foot radius, 85-90 mph through the turn).
