3" front drop spring
I am considering going to the 3" drop spring in front. Currently I have 2" drop spindles and coils that are cut for 2" drop for a toatal of 4"
My question is, will I be able to have it properly aligned with the 3" springs???? Thanks,

Yep, you should have no problem. I did this with a 67 using 77 f/e parts. However, I ended up going with 2" springs because of the roads in the NW(especially Portland!) Yet, I am considering cutting 1/4 coil off these, I just really like the low look!!

You will need to get longer bolts in the upper A-arm to get it properly aligned. I have 3" drop springs and thats what I needed to do.
