one new things that i found about comparing two g and b body spindles ... in b body spindles shaft and center of wheels sits a little downer in compare to gbody spindle ... near to 1.5"
 
I have never read there was a difference in the ride height with a B body spindle and there are plenty of forums about the conversion
 
I don't think there's any difference in ride height between the two spindles. The B-body spindle may push the wheel out a little bit, but nothing that's significantly noticeable.

The 11" rotors should fit behind the 14" rims. Stock G-body rotors are 10.5", if I recall.

see center shaft place on both of these spindles ... in b body spindle center of wheel beside lower ball joint and in gbody spindle it 's in somewhere between two ball joints place
 
i did the swap no height change. you must get new upper control arms. you will run out of bolt before you can put enough shims to make the wheels sit straight
 
i am in Iran and summit wont ship out to Iran

but something funny to share here is comfort ride and softer ride after cutting the springs (only before arriving to bump of roads)
 
now after all research tonight i know that B body spindles will not raise the car. It will lower it a bit.

and b body spindle and brake swap will help or better handling&stoping power

and i found a set of stock 34 years old gbody spring ,
