What are you guys running for springs? Length and rate?

I think we're running 12-130 or 12-135. From everyone I've talked to, that's what about everyone runs

I think my coil overs are strange. I can't really remember. The bar that runs along the top for the top mounting point of the coil over was all custom made by my buddy Smack (stocknotch)

I'm making my own mounts as well. I haven't decided on what shocks yet. I got board and cut out the whole rear of my car. Going to do a mini tub and coil overs. Then going to do all new sheet metal and bulkhead in the rear. Probably going to change fuel cells to.
strange coil overs are the way to go. 12" 120 is common for drag cars, depending on weight of vehicle we even run 110's. the shock does all the work, the spring just hold up the car.

Does Strange offer a coil over kit to use with there regular adjustable shocks or am I going to have to just replace both? I have seen some other kits out there but none seem to fit Strange shocks.

I got my setup from Team Z, after talking to Dave for quite a bit about my setup he recommended a 12" 110# spring. My rear shocks could be better but they're the Strange S5206 with a 5.88" stroke.

I have strange double adjustables with 12" 130# springs. But thats due to all the ballast I have in the back to make weight.
