Re: Air bags with a big block??
I don't think you need to worry so much about the rating, but the bag you decide to run. Slams will lift way before the "others" and not need 110 - 120 before it gets up. I always hear complaints about needing a lot of pressure before they lift, so run Slams!! 7's should be fine, but at that point it's your preference, clearance issues and how it will ride.
Others will chime in and give their opinion, it's a common question / discussion. |

Look at his build thread, it will be worth the hour it will take!
