using my original 69 camaro z28 springs and the car seem to be seating kinda high i do still need to install the interior and install the radiator and fan and battery not sure if that will help the stance of the car

Assuming they are seated correctly, do the current measurements match the factory assembly manual?

Starting in 69 springs were computer calaculated. A heavily optioned car would get a stiffer spring. YM could also fit a Z28 as a heavy duty spring. The link above was in the parts catalog to help figure what replacement spring to order.

I created the awhile back to calculate the 69 z28. Choosing different options yields different springs.
