2nd generation coil spring spacer
I have a few questions to ask the members. I have a hot rod truck with a 2nd generation camaro front suspension and recently have installed a BBC. I'm having an issue with the front tires hitting the fenders when I turn and am needing to space the body up higher from the tires. the 1st question i have is how would I find out if I had coil springs for a big block? I've put in rubber coil spring spacers IN the coils but haven't gotten much improvement. I need about 1" more for clearance. The 2nd question I have is is there a better way to increase the body height? What would you suggest. NO I'm not drag racing, merely a street cruiser. thank you.

You could get some coil spring spacers, They are Aluminum and go under the coil spring in the lower a arm,it's a 2-1 ratio,1/2 spacers will raise 1". Summit has them

Yes,the spring will sit in a small pocket ,the spacer fits this pocket and coil will seat into spacer. Tape them to bottom of coil if stubborn to get to seat correctly,stock coils you will have a lot of turns,performance coils will be larger diameter with less turns
