    I am interested, Clyde. Will these springs give the same road feel as the OEM ones did when the car was new? Or do they give it a harder feel, do you feel bumps in the road more, etc.?

    these are a much firmer spring for increased handling. Ride wasn't to harsh in my 67 with big block.

    Thanks, Clyde. I will step out of line while I think about the struggle between better handling vs. less bumpy ride. :)
