Can a 4 link-z link clamped car be just as fast as a 4-4 spring behind? I just cant get the side bite i want out of a 4-4.

At any givin time they all can be fast,Have you tried running the z-link on the RR with the spring behind on the left rear it produces a ton of side bite.

I TRIED IT ONCE IT WAS ALLRIGHT WITH THE FRONT BAR LEVEL AND THE BACK BAR DOWN FROM LEVEL 2 HOLES, SO I MOVED THE BACK BAR UP TO LEVEL AND THE CAR WAS JUNK AGAIN. Thats having the spring behind on the b/c on the left and in front of the b/c on the rr

If the car was better with the RR back bar down a couple of holes,and not so good when you moved it up for slick I would try a stiffer RR spring,if thats something you haven't tried yet.

No i havent tried that i have a 200 in it now. Have you ran the z-link with the spring in front of b/c?

If your RR spring is in front of the axle, go up in spring like the other guy said. You have to figure in the motion ratio, 200lb spring is good on the axle not in front, more farther forward needs more spring.
