Need height of stock SVX from ground to center of front fender
Moved the koni's to the racer over the weekend. Took a little more spring out trying to get it to stock height. Right now it is at 26 1/2 inches on either side. Hocrest's is at 26 with worn struts. I can't measure mine as I haven't gotten the new struts for it yet so it is on blocks.

26 1/2" is about the height to the lip of the front fender for my car before I installed my springs.

Keep in mind we have all of 2 inches of g.c. at stock height with our 2 into 1 hooker. Can't go much lower than that and get it off the trailer and through a course w/o loosing the entire exhaust.

And that would not be a good day I take it the 2 inches is a static measurement? I'll have to see what the g.c. is on mine when I get back home (off on official NASA training this week ) -Bill
