    Got package #A324AD-250SK Now the springs are# 11SP250 Shocks are #A324AD
    The car is 72 GS 455, all. heads, intake & rad. Man. steering.
    The springs are 250 lb. but progress by the inch at 250lbs
    Do you folks think that is what i need for drag or should i have 450 lb springs.
    I can send them back if i do it soon,,,,,,,,,,, What do ya think????? Thanx

    Did you order through Viking or one of their dealers? That kit would be for an "easy up" weight transfer style setup. 250lb springs will probably be on the light end for a big block car that hasn't been lightened - 350's might be more appropriate.
