Viking coil over hybrid front shocks
Guys I need help picking new hybrid springs for my 1979 trans am that weighs 1900 in the front I currently have the Viking 10” 350 rated springs and it sit a little to low and I have no more adjustment , looking to get the most weight transfer out of the springs so I need something with a lot of stored energy . Not sure if I can go to a 12” long spring with the Viking coil overs , any ideas ?

Did you reach out to Viking? I worked with Mike Proulx on my set-up and he nailed it. Even If you went with the 10" 350 lb springs on their recommendation, I'm sure they could get you the right springs now since you know how the 10/350 springs work.

I know from the old QA1 hybrids that came with 350s also many guys went 450.
