Default Help with my new coil over adjustments!

Just purchased four double adjustable Strange coilovers with Hypercoil Springs for my 99 T/A. Car is full weight automatic, 5000convter, 9" 4.10's, somewhere in the 450rwhp area. LCA's, subframes, Phbar, 28" MT ET Streets. If you need more info let me know.

Now, i have contacted Strange and they have given me some settings to start out with as far as compression and extension. However ride height was never mentioned and i sure it depends on what my car likes but are there any basics outs there? such as nose 1" lower than rear? or level as possible and as low as possible?

Also, the above paragraph is most important but i do still drive this thing on the street on occasion and what kind of settings and or ride height have others found that works well?

Bump for interest. Out of curiosity, would you mind posting the settings for compression/extension?
