Pair of PTFB GT springs. Never installed.

I had this set up for an iron engine LS but it'll work for SBC as well. Should be about a 2" lowering spring.

Only reason for selling is that I got the original engine from my car back and I'm going to switch the car back to that setup. I'm switching to a heavier spring from PTFB.

These go for $169............I'll $120 shipped

Hey, so will these work on SB350 With AC and will the ride still be 2" lower without spring cut?

I don’t know where your car sits right now. There are too many factors for variations for me to give you a guarantee. With AC you should be getting as low as possible with your given engine combination. Aluminum heads can make your car sit higher. Low-friction control arm bushings will allow your car to sit as low as possible. PTFB also sells adjustable body mounts can lower your car 1/2” without even changing the spring. Another way to lower your car 1/2” without changing springs is using 1/2” extended ball joints. Spring spacers can raise your car. Many manipulations can be made.

What the rate?

Should be 500-600lb range. Most of the sponsors on this forum fall on that range for LS/SBC lowering springs. This is not listed on their website.

I know with small block, for example, DSE lists 550lb and Hotchkis lists at 600lb. These should be right about there.

I ran these springs in my car with my LS swap and this is what mine looked like uncut.

Thanks for sharing ryeguy! Looks good. Always going to miss seeing the ‘76 on the forums. Maybe one day you’ll have another chance at buying it back.

Still available.
