Air bags and PSI

    I recently purchased a 70 GS Stage 1 with Hotchkiss sway bars,control arms, and urethane bushings. The car also has air bags inside each spring. Can anyone give me some idea as to the pressure I should run on the street, and what pressure on the track? Or should there be no pressure and just use more on the right side if necessary to keep the car from squatting and launching wrong? Thanks!

    For the street, I would keep low pressure- maybe 5 to 10. You don't want to go below 5, or they might collapse.

    For the track, I would try running the passenger's side about 15 (or slightly more) PSI higher than the driver's side- maybe 20/5 or 30/10.
