The longer front shocks are on and David scaled the car yesterday before doing a quick alignment check last night. One of the things that David found with the longer fronts was that at full droop the springs would unseat from the upper spring retainer so try stop that from happening (only an issue when on jack stands or in a really bad couple of seconds after a really big bump) he added droop stops.

Here are the corner weights "before"


and after adjustment


So - total weight is 3511 pounds (I know) and as it sits it's 53.6% front and 46.4% rear; stick my fat butt in the seat and it's just about 51.5% front 48.5%.

Should be test driving today...
