need sugestions and tips please!!!!

I have a question on this subject also. I will upload pics as soon as I get rubber. K. Here goes. I converted the whole driveline to disc and 5 lug. It's orig. a 68 swb. Everything is 1971 spindles and had to go thru 6 sets of control arms to find a good set. I bought some drop springs 2/4. 200 bucks for the whole set. If I go with the 2" drop springs in the front and 4" in the rear will a 2" lowering block level the truck off? It would then be a 2/6 drop. The weight of the engine should bring the front down a lil but.....I don't know. Someone please pm me so I know what to do.
Motor is as follows. 1970 sbc350 .040 over. Makes a 357. Nothing overkill. All federal mogul or speedpro except main, rod, and cam bearings are clevite. Flat top 4 valve releif pistons. Rv cam(440/460) and 1.6 alum roller rockers. Cloyes double roller timing chain. Crane pushrods edelbrock performer with holley 600 elec choke with holley 80 gph mech fuel pump. All billet alum brackets and stainless hardware. Don't know how to upload a pic or I would of the engine. Someone told me my combination is gonna be too much for the 68 swb I'm building. 357 with 700r4 and 3.07 limited What do u think?
