Question: Do I Need Different Front Coil Springs?

[fine69]

I currently have VB&P Gymkhana coil springs that are rated at 550 lb/in.

Will these springs be sufficient for a big block with iron heads?

Okay, I received confirmation (in case anyone is interested).

The VB&P 550 lbs/in Gymkhana coil springs are designed for both small and big block Corvettes. The springs will provide an upgrade to F-41 or Gymkhana specifications. It will also lower the vehicle approximately 1" -- but I like it.

Thanks for the info ! An inch lowered can be good

Can u use big block springs on a small block?
I have stock gm big block springs, but I may retain the small block.
The big block stockers appear to be about the same length as the small block.
Anyone know what the spring rates are?
