After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

The Vette is not mine, the 68 is. The cowl hood had 427 on it..... I've got a 383 stroker with a vortech supercharger in the truck.

Re: And I thought I had the baddest

Nice Vette,but I'll take both!! Just like the muscle cars,back when these Vettes were current or late models,I wouldn't have left one stock. Now that big money guys are buying this stuff and are all about matching their little correct nuts & bolts it's so cool to see one that screams "Screw that,I wanna ROCK!!" Third taillight? OMG!!! I think I need a pill.
