Can someone tell me what the correct stock front end height should be for a 68 with a small block? I thought I had small block springs, but when we set the motor in, the wheel well is at 30 inches with a 25.5 inch tire, and it looks way too high. Maybe they are big block springs? If so, maybe I can just cut off one coil & bring it back down to normal.

Your BEFORE pics are about how mine looks right now. They are not new springs, so I don't think they'll settle much. And I can't drive it for a while, til all the body is back together. Maybe I'll wait til then, and after we drive it a while, I'll plan to cut if needed. How much did you cut off to drop that much?
