I'm currently running DUB springs and Koni Strt struts.
When I motorswapped my V6 to a 351w, they still did the job (albeit making the car a little lower in the front, but it was still okay because the motor weights about the same as a Coyote).
When I added the blower to my car, the additional ~75 pounds of weight overpowered the springs/struts, and the car bottoms out on dips in the highway as a result. I'm trying to fix that problem.
Steeda sells front coilover struts without springs. Summit sells just springs (I didn't see any on the Steeda site). Nearest I can tell, Steed uses 10-inch springs with a (standard?) 2.5-inch ID.
Can someone recommend a spring rate for my configuration? I have no idea what a "standard" spring rate is for coilovers, but I think I need something a bit stiffer.
