I have SPC lowers with the ride height kit on the shelf, I bought them last summer. I like the ride height adjustability and the caster to hopefully stay centered in the wheelwell. I don't know how big of concern that is for some but it made sense when comparing apples and oranges.

I took that into consideration for about 3 seconds when I jumped on the bargain I felt I got them for.:unibrow:

I still haven't nabbed any upper control arms but the "needs" list is getting a little shorter on the big items... for now.

I was confused by your "650 lb 2+" lower coils (existing, possibly 680 lb)" comment.

2+" :question:

With my still evolving kit I anticipate a front coil spring change. The ATS spindles I have incorporate a 7/8" drop. I have Hotchkis 2" drop coils now. Then the SPC lowers have 1" drop, but I read it is more like a -1.5" to +1.5" range so 3" of leeway to make corrections. I would prefer to have a spring that puts me in the middle of that and then work from there to tune, mostly for appearance.

As it is, I am looking at 3 7/8" advertised drop but we all know it varies from car to car.

Edited to reflect -2 (lower) oops. :(

Not sure on the 1" lower SC&C doesn't reflect that and Mark never mentioned they were lower in our conversation. Hopefully not, I don't need lower. http://scandc.com/new/node/81

The 1" drop is negated by using various optional plates as needed.

Have you read this yet?

I think they are a good choice.

Thought I scored a block, got it home and wiped it down and found this........

Surprised I missed it during the onsite inspection as I looked the valley area over pretty close. Oil film and lighting must have concealed it. Be interesting to see how the seller responds now that he has my cash.

dangit dude that sucks. hope you can make good on it with the seller. you convinced he knew about it?

Bummer!

Good luck with the seller. I hope he is a decent guy.

Hard to say, some people are much better liars than I am. In this economy people are desperate......I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt until he responds to the return request I sent with photo.

that sucks, let me know if you need a motor. I have a complete stroker engine that I was going to use but I found an LS2.
Short block is assembled.

That sucks seig. Is that block made in Mexico? Those are known to crack in the lifter valley.. BTW Bob is selling a brand new sbc bow tie block, if you only need the block

My Zl1 block works great, just saying.
