qa1 175 springs tires are hitting the wheel well
I used ls spindels on my 1993 trans am. I did a iron ls swap and the long block is the only thing in the car. The turbo,piping,intercooler and radiator are not installed. The tires are touching the wheel well. The front suspension is qa1 r coilover setup with 12 inch 175 springs. Did i install something wrong or are the springs to soft? I adjusted them to the stop.

275 lb. front drag springs are for cars that have an extreme amount of weight reduction in the front. Definintely not iron blocks and FI setups.
300 is a always a good starting point for front drag springs.
