Do the tops of the coils seat in a fixed position?

On 64 & later chevy trucks, the upper arm has nothing to do w/the top of the spring.

The only thing that I'm aware of on 67 & later trucks that secure the top of the spring is a small formed lip that drops from the top of the spring pocket inside of the front crossmember. On the bottom, you just need to make sure the end of the spring is fully seated in the notch within the spring pocket of the lower control arm.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
