It was taken at the normal height with the weight on the wheel before anywork was done,its the same now,so im guessing some spacers are in order ? -
I think it will only fit a c4 or c6 if you have an fmx or 35/40 BW it wont .

The dood at the suspension shop said they will suit low and super low springs,so i guess there is gunna be a few cm more in the shock,dave what about those spring packers that are around 1cm in height would a set of those help in the front instead of buying taller springs -
maybe thats why my front end has sagged

I would say that is an american cast CF cleveland foundry 351 manifold,probly early 70's,might suit your app with an adaptor but it might be a 4v headed manifold as there was no 2v 4 barrel manifolds in the states ,cast iron anyway.
