Exclamation Need some help with front springs!!

hey guys i am new to this site and i need some help with my 68 camaro. soo far i have done upper ball joints, stock front springs, monro shocks, and i am putting in the hotchkics front sway bar tomorrow. it rides pretty nice now but if i hit a hard dip my headers scrape the ground. i need to get new springs and i had two in mind. the eibach pro-kit lowering springs(3848.120) or the hotchkis performance sport springs(1907f). i also want better handling, which set-up will stiffin up the front and give me better handling?

thanks
peter

Both will give you a better ride,but your ground clearence will be less with a lowering kit,your headers will need to be tucked up.(fab Work)

That is true, if you go lower so will your headers, I went with the hotchkis set up on mine but have not got the car back on the road yet.

if you like the ride height, get bump stops, and maybe some kyb shocks.
