Perfect height .... What springs did u use in the front?

Standard V8 springs with a coil and a half removed. If Chip Foose can cut springs on Overhaulin to get the ride height perfect then I don't see a problem with me doing it. The ride is no different to before, the original springs are in a box and can be refitted if required.

I don't think I've ever had a car that was standard height and most I have lowered by cutting the springs and I've never had an issue with it. If I was going to radically drop a car I would fit lowered springs to avoid coil bind, but I don't drop them that much and this one will definitely never be going any lower.

Just in case anyone is interested, one and a half coils cut from a standard V8 front spring is two inches lower. Combine that with two inch lowering blocks at the rear and you get a nice height that will not attract unwanted attention and won't scrape over speed humps or on steep driveways.
