Hey
I have the 4 into 1 header-look side pipes on my car. I am having clearance issues, both before and definitely after adding them. I'm thinking about adjusting the torsion bars to raise up the front end a little bit. My car sits pretty low- lower than my friends IROC-Z, but theres a 71 R/T that sits lower than mine, but he has no problems. Raising the torsion bars is one way I thought of, the other involves air shocks. Does anybody know if I could even get air shocks for the front?
Thanks a lot

Best thing to do is just crank the torsion bars up a bit. It is easier and would taken just a few minutes. Never heard of air shocks on the front, but it would seem it would defeat the purpose if the torsion bars weren't adjusted accordingly.

Thanks for your opinion. That's what I was leanign toward, so I guess once I get my car in dad's garage, I'll get that done.
