Question IFS Spring Problem

I bolted my front suspension components to my TCI IFS in my 52 chevy. No matter what I do I can not get the springs to set correctly in the lower control arm. Seems like the springs are to long, forcing the control arms down at about a 45-degree angle. The engine/trans is in and I've bounced it but it still doesn't set right. I thought the control arms should be somewhat level and have heard of folks cutting the new springs to get the ride height correct. I really don't want to do this unless I have to. The height seems to be higher than I expected. Any one else ran in to this problem?

3100 special. I been trying to follow along and do mine about the same time as you, but have come to the conclusion that I just can't keep up.
