I replaced my 301 with 455, keeping same tranny, A/C and everything. Im pretty sure my springs are fatigued, but im trying to decide what setup to get. I put on a performer intake and headers, which should of lightened things up, but I dont think it is quite as light as the 301. How should I go about figuring out what springs I should use? I am working off of an esprit platform, so I want to beef everything up. Should I just replace everything with WS6 spec parts? Also, I was reading a "complete firebird history" book and it said the esprit had a bolt-on subframe, while the formula and TA had a ladder-type subframe? What is the difference here? Sorry for the long post, but one question always leads to another.
