Frank,

My car is 2560 and came with 350# (7") springs all around. You can order 350# X 8" (or longer) springs so you can raise the car. I went to Penske shocks and have 7" (450#)springs in the front and 10" (425#) in the back. As for the sway bars you will need to add some shims so there is no preload on the sway bar. It's not much, I added two washers on one side. I have my shocks set at what I will be running. I am also not looking as much at height as I am looking at the suspension angles. At 27" my lower a-arms are angled up (toward the car). My front is at 26-1/2 and my rear is at 25-3/4. 17" wheels all around. I am using mine for auto-cross. Good luck on yours.

Ken M 2560
