Well, I have 175 lb springs in it right now. But I have not driven it all out yet. But I did give it a bit of a work out and see no reason to change.
As far as shocks go, this is the part # PS 8300 RM 18
Meaning it is an 18" shock. But like James OLC has said many times, what works in my particular set up , may or may not work on yours, especially since mine was a 12-bolt prototype. I also asked for the most travel and a higher ride height than the usual customer on this board, but I do not know if that was taken into consideration or if they just copied the 9" Ford specs.
My car weighs about 3300 lbs. without the driver, with about a 53/47 % weight balance. The shocks are set at 3/4 soft and seem to be just right for me so far. I am awaiting my driver's opinion and track time for better feedback.
