Well, after speaking to Mancini's again I decided to just go with the 3300 lbs superstocks.  If it isn't low enough for me I'll just make some small lowering blocks for it?  Won't be quite as low as that last Chally pic but should be pretty good, and a little more functional.  Wil be the same setup as you hey 8pack?

The lowering blocks can hurt handling

We tried the blocks on a certain Valiant we used to race and it killed the traction gains of the
springs

Kinda spooky at the top end too :P

Does de-arcing the springs change the length?
