    I guess I can post an update. I've had a weak valve spring for the longest. I would have to adjust it atleast twice a month. I finally got tired of adjusting it so I purchased oversized valves and street performer valve springs from LCE. I'm in the process of removing the cylinder head (been working like crazy so I don't have a lot of time). Once I'm done with this work rotation, I will get back to the suspension so hopefully I can have it done and drive it to Layed Out at the Park!
