Default 10" springs

This is how the 10" springs look. They adjuster nut is all the way down. The wheel to fender clearence is about 1 1/2". There is full supension travel and does it make a difference in driving.
The springs are 10GSF 350 from QA1. The 350 is pounds of coarse.

I think you are pretty much right on the spot for the springs if you are running a small block. If you are running an FE then you might want to go up to a 450-550# springs. The larger number would be if you are racing and that is just a guess because you would really need to have the weight at all four corners to determine the correct spring rates if you just wanted to go neutral.

I can not tell you how much better the car is with the 10" springs. It is indeed a small block. A 302 Ford crate motor with a Holley dual pumper. It is certainlt a blast to drive.
What are your thoughts on the rear springs? I have not compressd them nearly as much as I had to the original B&B front springs.
