Make the spring 10% shorter, it's 10% stiffer,etc. David ------------------ Check my web page for First Gen Camaro suspension info: David's Motorsports page (http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/David_Pozzi/) First Gen Suspension Page (http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/David_Pozzi/first_gen_suspension.htm) 67 RS 327 69 Camaro Vintage Racer 65 Lola T-70 Can Am Vintage Racer 69er Mar 12th, 01, 07:43 PM Does anyone know where to find the rates of coil springs. Don't they vary from air and non-air? boodlefoof Mar 13th, 01, 04:32 AM I seem to recall from looking into getting new coils for myself that the stock AC springs for a small block are 307# and the non AC are something like 330#? Sounds pretty weenie to me, but that is what I remember, I might be wrong. davidpozzi Mar 13th, 01, 05:45 AM I have all that on my suspension page below, check at the bottom - the FAQ.
