    front springs are too soft for a Metric.
    Does it have the Nova lower control arms on it, or is it the stock metric lowers?
    I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

    what springs would you run on the front? I believe the lowers are factory. I might change them...

    we used to run 900 rf and 800 lf on a big half mile with a chevelle stud z linked rr and clamped up lr with spring in front and the thing was a rocket ship.

    As far as your cross goes, I keep mine between 46.5 and 49.0. And I start around 40# bite, usually end up around 65#
