I measured the torsion bar diameter (several times and places along bars) in my 1966 Coronet. Plan 440/727. Already has 8.75 with 3.23 gears, open.
Right side is .965 inch wide
Left side is .910 inch wide.
Engine was slapped together 8 years ago for quick sale to previous owner, so mismatched torsion bars goes along with that.
Changing from 318LA (not original) to 440
Street car. Not sure it will ever see a track.
What are your thoughts on best size torsion bar, knowing that the torsion bars should be replaced? THANKS! Ben
