Front splitter height

[CamaroAJ]

So let’s talk splitters for a min here. I’m building one for my Camaro and it’s almost parallel to the ground like it’s supposed to be. It’s mounted to the bottom of the spoiler and back to the sub frame (C5 vette chassis) so the spoiler is flat with that. The problem I have is that puts the bottom of the spoiler at 7” from the ground which seems really high to me when most are in the 3”-5” range. 5” would be safe for street driving I feel. I plan on making side skirts for the car which will decrease ground clearance on the sides a few inches to around 5” of ground clearance.



Does 7” seem like way to much? I’m thinking it is and I’m thinking spacers between the sub frame to lower it down and build a custom lower spoiler instead of modifying the anvil one I have. The other issue I see with that is then the bottom of the car wouldn’t be flat anymore. There would be a step down after the splitter to the floor of that 2” difference which I could make angled and not just a hard step.

few pics for reference.
