There is no definitive answer to this question because there are variables that have affected the truck coils (thus current height) & the chevelle coils. One guy might get 1" drop while another gets 3". . .....

I did this swap almost 20yrs ago & got exactly 0" difference for the work.

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.

I have a set of Chevelle / Nova springs that I'm not going to use. PM me if you are interested.

They are boxed up and ready to be shipped.
