Restoration / Re: Correct '69 L-78 front springs?
« on: September 15, 2007, 09:34:23 PM »... there is really no such thing as a big block L78 or L35 or L48 spring. In 69 springs were selected by a computer
based on the vehicle type (coupe or convertible), engine type (L6 or V8) and the options added to the car. ....
Mark,
How can that be? L/89 engines were easily 100 pounds lighter than L/78 engines. L/34 & L/35 engines with A/C must
be at least 100 pounds heavier than non-A/C equipped Camaros. There's at least a 200 pound difference there. There
must have been more spring options. I see so many BBC Camaro's with incorrect front ride heights. There must be more
to spring selection.........
Steve, any experience with L/89's with the spring vendor you identified?
