Rick,

The Shelby springs are unique to the Shelby uprights. Shelby added eccentrics to the uprights so camber could be adjusted, so the springs are shorter than an original spring. As shipped, all the 289 Shelby's need to have the springs re-arched. My plan is to have a local spring shop make up a set of springs to the original drawings, then arch them to get the correct right height. Its a pain, but I don't know any other way to do it.

The CSX7000 series cars use Afco shocks, and the CSX8000 series cars use Spax shocks.
