Rear Coilover and Spring

Hey Everyone,

We just finished the back half and 4 link on my 87 S10 this past weekend, now I'm looking to order a set of coilovers and shocks. Can you recommend a specific shock and spring rate? This is for a 800+whp straight line truck. It will have a plastic fuel cell in the rear. Below are some pictures of the new back half and 4 link, along with the shortened rear end. We built everything by hand, no kits!!! There is some temporary bracing still in these photos. Thanks for your help!!!

Thats the longest 4-link bars for a drag car I've ever seen!

As far as shocks/coilovers go, I'd call Afco, give them the specs on the truck and see what they recommend.
