The plan for now is to keep the springs I have until the entire body weight is on it then see if I like what I see...
I wouldn't say the SS springs are that much lower, maybe and inch. I removed a set from my 95 impala ss, and put a set of Hotchkis 2 inch springs, brought the car down to a nice stance that isn't to low.
The 9c1 springs ride a little harder. We been swapping back and forth for years, and some guys like the 9c1 front and SS rears, others like the SS all the way around.
