Good instructions for installing lowering springs for an LT1 bodied camaro?
#16
is that because of safety concerns or problems down the road etc? People I have talked to that did it say the ride is a lot better than lowering springs and that safety is not an issue as long as the spring is not heated (i.e. use a cutting wheel not blowtorch)
#18
No, because cutting springs is inexact and the results may yield a spring with a non-linear rate.

fs = -kx seems linear to me
Actually I would trust shoebox. It is inexact. I cut mine, and then ground them flat to sit better, front and back. I cut the rears 5 times to get the desired height and same amount of coil removal off each spring. Now I need either shorter shocks or safety straps so the coils don't pop out when I raise the rear end -- or worse, drive over a big bump.
