yea... but i think its a lil to late now... like $920.00 to late lol... the 69 tylers working on (well just finished)has the exact same springs in there and its sits much lower though...
all the pics are of the pass side though and right now its sitting higher that the driver side by 1" the driver side rear height looks pretty good though.

Thanks Tom

Still a bit of work to get it all to fit right, but it's coming along. Like Aj said it looks like I might get super lucky and only need to roll the fenders. Talked to the guys at I-Forged and they say I can mill a bit off the back side of the center section if needed.

Got the car pulled away from the wall and found that the drivers side sits the way I expected it to. Not sure why but the passenger side sits almost an inch and a half higher. It did drop a bit but not much. Just need to tinker with it a bit is my guess.

Thanks Steve. The engine should be ready tomorrow and make for a great birthday present. To bad I have to pay for it. :lol: You know how these cars go...one thing leads to another. :captain:

Anthony-

This is why I didn't recomend a DSE 3" spring (beside the fact that the L2 CAT5 spring is much better in terms of construction):

Same leafs, after constuction, and with a 1" lowering block:

Here is the 69 we are finishing on the Global West L2CAT5 spring- no lowering blocks, non full weight:

We should be able to get Curtis' car plently low.


Tyler

I'm sure you can...........

I'm not worried at all. Tyler will be over in the next week or two and I'm sure he will be inspecting everything before the car hits the road.

Oddly, the drivers side sits a lot lower than the passenger. I may have to loosen the front bolt on that spring to get it to sit right. I'll post a picture of the drivers side tomorrow. It looks killer! :thumbsup:

Yeah, in the thread Tyler linked, Jake said that all bolts need to be loose, get it on the ground, and then tighten it all down. You only redid the rear bolts today right?

anthony i dont think that will help nore does it need it... i personally bolted the front spring pockets to the spring and made sure they tight but still able to articulate the pocket on it.

Sounds like they are installed correctly, I guess it's time to see what happens when the rest of the drive train gets installed. :cheers:

Yea, but I didn't know if he was just buying the needed parts or if he was getting a whole new engine.

I'm building a 355 street engine next week and thought I could cut him a smoking deal :)

Can't wait for his car to get done... then we will have to find another Camaro or two in Vegas and come do a big ass photoshoot.

Tyler, that black '68 looks great. Are those 17s or 18s on the car?
