Ground Zero - Heavy Duty Springs?

I am in the process of researching what springs to put on my car.
1964 Cutlass Sport Coupe 330 w/Automatic,A/C,P/S.
I had a 1964 Chevelle(basiclly same set-up) before and I used stock springs and KYB GasAdjust shocks. I always felt like the ride could have been alittle firmer! Has anyone used the Heavy Duty Springs from P-S-T? called Ground Zero? I would appreciate any input.-Thanks Dan

Hey Dan

I put the 65 BB 442 springs on mine. Got them from the parts place. Worked great and lifted the front alittle over an inch.

Is that an inch over stock ride height? or an inch over where it was before the "New" springs?

Before the new springs. The car only had 112,000 miles on it. But i put in a BB so it sagged. After i put on the springs it lifted it up nice. The springs where a decent price. I think it was $140 to my door. Heres the link.
