The racing series I'm entering (24 hours of lemons) doesn't really have any rules except for a base price for the car.
With that said, I'm trying to locate a way to run 5" springs all the way around. We plan on running asphalt, and I'm not asking anyone to give me the numbers from their setup. I would just like to how to use 5" springs in a Chevette. I know a 5" should swap in the rear buckets without modification but I heard that they're a no go in the front unless you change something around.
Anyone know where I should start looking to get what I'm looking for? Thanks.

Most likely the 11" tall ones as we also want to run 14" rims so we don't want to get crazy low on ride heights.

The front cross member has to be modified for the springs to sit all the way up in the saddle. Its pretty straight forward, cut the outer edge of the crossmember until the spring fits, then add bracing to strengthen it.
