I've got some body roll while sliding. Currently on the 8K fronts and 6K rears. No sway bars in the front or back. What kind of spring rate is everyone using?

Take a look into eag8's build thread as he's running no sways as well, although, for auto-x. IIRC he's running 600lb/425lb F/R. It's in his thread though.

No he's actually running 900 front springs now with no bar. I run 700 with a bar still.
You are going to need at least 700 lb front springs if you want to run with no front sway bar.

That said, I'm not drifting either.

I run 10k front and 6k rear. but I also have a heavy iron block with iron heads. so I needed stiffer springs up front for the weight. no sway bars.

Right on guys thanks for the input. I was thinking of stepping all the way to 12k for the front and moving the 8ks to the rear. Maybe I'll just try the 10ks and see how I like it

Yeah, I'm running 900/600 for autocross and it feels just about right. (That's 16k front 10.7k rear in metric)

you're going to need dampers that can handle that though... 12/8 probably won't be bad.
