Front suspension coil springs
« on: April 01, 2013, 03:40:43 PM »
Need some input on front coil spring upgrade....
Running the original -65 GS front springs today with alu. spacers in them on my -65 Skylark
with the 455 in it and would need a little stiffer spring or maybe just a set of new original springs.
With alu. heads and intake on the 455 I do not think I am much off an original -65 GS
with AC in weight, and I would rather run a longer spring with a 1-1.5" lowering spindle
than something short and stiff....
All input appreciated...
