Mike at CAC recommended and sold a set of 12" / 175 lb springs for the G-link rear. So that is the recommended set up from them. When I purchased they wanted to know how I planned to drive and what kind of power train package I was running. With a mild LS1/T56 and with my intended use of local grocery getter, summer time commuter up and down mountain roads in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and an auto cross/drag strip half a dozen times a year (fun not competition) that was the recommendation. They didn't recommend a stiffer spring unless it was really going to be used for competition.

And while the mountain roads are fun up here, this County and State are broke and the roads have their problems here and there. Having a stiff suspension would just result in my fillings popping out of my teeth if drive it too hard all the time.

Just my 2 cents....
