Not Ranked
Too many varibles
Priobe Which size tires are you running? Street or track? Do you have a lakewood bell housing and has it been trimmed on the bottom? Do you know your spring rates?
Here's mine for the track, 4 1/2" at the frame behind and before the tires. 4" at the bottom of the bellhousing, Lakewood.
2" of total travel from normal stance, 1" up and 1" down.
I am not running the stock springs and shocks in my car.
Every car is different and people look for a certain ride look, I think that is what you are looking for. Get the car where you like the look and then have the weights checked for balance of the car with you in the drivers seat. Depending on size of tire,17" or 15" this will also have some different hieghts onthe car. Try and give about 2" to the clearance of the tires going up, if you don't rub anything go to 1 1/2". I wouldn't go any less than this with street springs and shocks. Rick L.
