what engine does the superduty have?

What exactly does he think the shocks that are mounted from the spring eye to the ubolt plate are going to do?

521 roller motor making 700hp+. Probably more like 600.

Not much if you account for the 10 vertical shocks over the front axle alone
There must of been a sale on Rancho 5000s

Haven't you already discussed this

Why a 1.7 rocker and not a 1.73?
Do you have any experience with the pedestal style roller rockers..... Trying to make up my mind on new heads or working the old ones myself

Nice TFS's...btw
