[V8] Lowering thought

[Ed Kellock]

Seems to be one very significant common denominator between the two
threads...  ;-)

Hi, folks, haven't been by in a long while.  Reading this thread reminds me
of the old tor$en days on the qlist!
 
Two things to mention--
-Be prepared to carve the shock towers a bit when using the ECS camber
plates.  Not a big deal, but not necessarily PNP, depending on how much you
lower the front. -If you just want the car to look more even, could you
raise the rears a tad along w/ using shorter damping rings on the front?
You might get 3/4" total change in rake by doing F and R this way before
getting out of hand.  The rear perches ride on the shocks.  W/ Bilsteins
it's common to move the split ring that the perch sits on and it would be
trivial to add a sleeve to raise them, but I don't recall the stock setup.
You would lose a little rear suspension travel in rebound.
