we installed the suspension on this car and was pretty much straight forward and not to bad to assemble once you get the up and down stops off. The rear end if you go there is a bit more technical and time consuming. really need to take your time here and measure and measure and measure. welding the top plates and the extra spring perch wasn't that bad. This is a real nice system and greatly improves the handling of the car. tracks nice and has NO issues with road crowning. this lime cuda is the only cast iron hemi on the road currently with Bills suspension. With the rack steering this baby goes where you want it to go. Compared to our stock 440+6 4spd Cuda, night and day difference. We also installed willwood brake system just an fyi, good luck ,got any questions Bill is a great guy to talk to and I can answer your question if you have any.

That is with the T-bar front end, I am sure there are some others with the coilover front end.

I believe it's 90-100 lbs. I did the conversion and love it.
Drive it like you stole it.

I've been thrilled with my RMS stuff! It's an eye catcher. Performance wise... I'd go with P/S set-up. But the road feel from a manual rack is excellent.Parking can suck,Turning radius is the only drawback.It steers like a precision instrument.The 4 link rear isn't even a comparison to the leafs.It's a whole different car now. I choose Baer brakes,No problems. Installation is easy F/R.Set-up can be an up/down deal for a few runs.QA1 single adjusters will get upgraded next year. I love driving it! I've pushed it hard up here in the canyons.The performance is worth it for me.But HP2 is right... You can make the factory stuff perform with it. But I made the right choice for me.    :blah:      I drive very curvy roads...   It rips!!! :bigsmile:

how does it perform compared to a mono leaf/cal track set up for drag racing with powerful cars?

With radial tires on our car it is very easy to handle.  The rear end doesn't slide out and the car squats without twisting.  We didn't even really tweak the adjustments either, just set it all up originally on the alignment rack.  It is very easy to drive even with a big motor and street tires.  We have the double adjustable AFCO's too, they are very nice units.  Call up Bill and chat with him a little, he is a very good guy with great customer service.
