I am new to the SN-95 & mod motors guys, just bough a 97GT, so please bear with me...


My questuion is, are the v-8 springs the same as 6cly springs?? Reason I ask is, the car I bought has some sort of lowering spring on the front, but not on the rear. And I aquired a set of 6cyl fronts that I though about putting on there. I did a search and so far all I can find is info about lowered cars. I do like look of the steeda sports from the pics I seen. But for now until I decide what springs I want to use, I am going to use a stock type spring. But was wondering if the v-6 spring will lower it any??

Here is a pic of my new toy... 97GTS with 92,000 miles, ,has manual windows, and no power locks.. guy I bought it from said it didn't have a radio, but he put one in.. Also came with long tube headers, h-pipe, 3.73's and lower control arms..

Anyway any info will be greatly appreciated...
