Quote from: "wayne petty"back to the torsion bars....  stiffer bars as i under stand increase road feel...

one of the links i posted had an article on rebuilding a gm box... and it showed how to change the torsion bar...

Yes, that's right.  A torsion bar change would increase road feel and take away the "one finger" steering that was all the rage in the 60s and 70s but now no one wants.

As far as I know, you can't get just the torsion bar from GM. You can from some of the rebuilders, but it's a major operation to change it. It requires near complete disassembly of the box to change it.
