Gota do some detail n wax but pretty happy with results with all new steering and suspension. Monte ss springs seem high. Is there a way to lower the car without swapping springs

You have a very clean looking cutlass right there. Nice engine bay too. How built is the engine.

Not too wild. 4 bolt w new crank, mild cam, rollers, Rhodes lifters, 7/6 rods, stainless headers, little polished intake, edlebrock 600, th350 w shift improver kit uuuummm, not too much else. The gears are doggy 2.14, but the 3.73 going in in a couple weeks. I'll get some updated interior pics when its done. About 80% there now.

If you want to keep your current springs, you can cut off about 1/4 coil at a time until you get your desired ride height. This will increase the rate a bit.

Otherwise, you could get drop spindles but at that point you might as well get new springs.
