Yeah that would be best if possible.
I got them with an inch lift so I didn't loose the sump on some of Ed's whites.
I did the Robson awhile back and thought I was on safari.
I orig wanted 190lb +1" like we ran on mk2 Escorts but Dai reckoned 'cos red blocks are a heavy lump 220lb was the way to go.
My way of thinking was to leave rear std so it doesn't drag it's ass
Anyhows remind me later in the week and I'll dig 'em out for a photo.
