Tim, just curious as to your engine combo from your comments below? Is that a Pontiac motor or a BB Chevy? All the Pontiacs should be close to the same weight (326 - 455) which should only be aproximately a 50lbs -100lbs difference than a BB Chevy if I remember correctly? So I was just wondering... If it is a BB Chevy, I would have thought BB Camaro springs would have been the chioce? I've just never heard of anyone using the GTO springs and found it interesting... Thanks Brett - 67 Drop Top 455!
