street, or just for racing? Its nice getting more room under the car. Is it a harder ride? Will there be an issue for front end travel on the street? Can you adjust ride height like torsion bars? Are the new technology torsion bars a happy medium? Thanks

How much travel do you need? Most coilovers have plenty......look at new cars...the majority have coilover struts. With proper setup and the proper spring rate, it will ride and handle better than it does now.

Good reply Monte, but how do you calculate spring rate?
