Another street/strip Q...

Im not sure if my springs are lowered springs but if i bought big block springs for my 72 and they were to tall, if i cut them to the same size would they lose so much of there integrity it would negate the reason for buying them? for weight transfer. thanks guys...

Stiffer spings on the front do not mean better weight transfer.
Actually a softer spring, that is compressed more, to sit at the correct height will help you more. You get better transfer by having more travel in the front suspension. There are shocks that will help you there too.
