Kevin ... my manual says 5 1/4" in front and 5 3/4" in rear for ride hgt . measured from frame rails as ERA Charles says . Mine is a bunch lower and I sometimes run more rake than the 1/4 to 1/2 " as it seems to help the front end to not be so squirrely at high speed on the track ( 130 + ) as I don`t have a front spoiler/air dam . My suggestion is until you get some miles on the car ... several hundred , don`t worry about ride hgt . Just get it close and once everything settles in , then start lowering until you`re happy .
FWIW , I set my ride hgt with a little over 1/2 tank of fuel and my weight in the driver`s seat . I also make sure the front and rear antisway bars are disconnected while setting the ride hgts and reconnected with no preload while the weight is still in the driver`s seat .... but then I`m anal on things like this .
