Best way to modify rear suspension??

[Camaro ProTouring]

Im going to start building a new camaro to be a allround car...Most track but also som street racing...

Im have read alot and are very intrested to build a 4-link construction whit coilover in the rear instead of the leafspring...

Is this the best way to get good roadhandling in a first gen camaro????

Which other modyfications can i do also or instead??
Maybe some of you have a better tip!!!

While no one hear will condone street racing, you have a bunch of choices for rear suspensions. DSE's new 4 link, 21st Century Street Machines rear suspension clip, Mark(Mean69) will have a 3 link at SEMA. That is just a start on whats available.

I have been trying to find the right suspension for my 73 camaro. I would like to go with coilovers in the rear which I have purchased but my problem is wheather I should go with a 4 link, ladder bars, or a 3 link which I cant find any information about. If you know anything about this please help me or where I could look.

The difference between a properly designed 3-link and a 4-link is akin to the difference between the new LS6 and a stocker 350...no comparison. The 4-link is more designed for show or straight line cars, no chassis designed for turning has ever used a 4-link. You NEED to pick up a copy of Herb Adams book to better understand suspension kinematics before venturing further into a change of this magnitude.
