Why all the negativity and harshness??




WHY? because the OP gets on here and pisses on the members that didn't "rubber stamp" what he was thinking.
IF these shocks were "specially built" for you, then they would fit the car. They obviously will NOT FIT nor will they work, since you stated that they would run out of travel before the LCA bumpstop contacts the frame. Jump down from the soapbox and get the RIGHT parts. These parts were free and they appear to be worth it.
I wouldn't take a gifted small block Chevy intake and spend hours trying to get it to work on my 440, no matter how much I liked the person that gave it to me.
