Suspension height Adding an iron block 5.3 to my 99 camaro. just wondering how it will effect suspension height? Wanting to lower the car since I have the k member out but don’t want the front lower than the back due to heavier engine block

Iron block weighs ~110lbs more than the aluminum version. What are your front spring rates? If for example the front spring rates are currently 110lb/in, then adding 110bs to the front should compress the front springs an additional inch. The age of the springs could cause them to lose some rate, so YMMV.
