Default Determine ride Height w/ BB

Hello All,

I am looking to adjust the ride height on my car. I am running a BB 427 and the oil pan looks pretty close to the floor.

I am think of changing my coil overs so that I can close the gap in the fender wells.

Please post some picks of a side view of your car those of you with BB.

Also if you can indicate your ride height at the fender or some referrence point so I can measure as well.

Also if you know the distance between oil pan to floor



27 1/2 @ front wheel well fender and oil pan 5 1/2 inch from floor

This is the only recent pic I have from the side.



Ride height from fender lip straight down through wheel center to garage floor:

LF: 26 3/8
RF: 26 3/8
LR: 25 7/8
RR: 25 7/8

427FE with an Armando oil pan that has 5" clearance at leading edge. Lakewood bellhousing and block plate have been trimmed horzontal. No issues in 4k miles. And I have more room to drop it further if I wanted to.
