<VV> Attitude

[Smitty Smith]

If it is low in the rear end, does that affect alignment? Does raising 
the rear end, (new springs??) require a realignment? Assuming the car is 
sagging, would spring inserts help or is new springs the way to go?

  Smitty says:  Kerry, more important that the way it looks is, How much negative camber you have on the back wheels.  Early model handling at the limit is pretty much controled by rear camber.  Camber is controled by the length of the rear springs.  About 2 degrees neg camber is right for street use and up to 4 degrees for track use.  If you go to so called heavy duty springs and they shift your camber to positive, your handling will go all to crap.  Just a personal opinion here but if the rear camber is about right and you don't like the tail down attitude, then chop a coil off in front and level it up.
