Qa1

Anyone running the QA1 front and rear coil over conversion?

Just bought an 84 Short bed roller. Getting ready to tear it down to the frame. Was planning on doing a simple build. Then saw some pics with 345s on the rear. Sold on doing it right the first time.

Re: Qa1

The kits seem to be very nice quality. I checked them out when they first started showing them off in the booth @ the Good-Guys shows a few years ago.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Qa1

Just bought the front kit for my 84. I'm very excited to get some better geometry and quality aftermarket parts in there. And after spending years running coils on all my old VWs, it will be interesting to see how a truck responds to the same technology.
