MSD Weights and Springs Help

Anyone running an MSD pro billet that has what they feel is the correct bushing and spring rate? Something on a setup similar to mine. BB, 10.5 to 1, Edelbrock heads, 525 cam 3.70 gears in a Cutlass. I'm just trying to figure out where to start.

They do. It's on the box that was thrown out with the weight and bushing set. Not by me. I just ordered new ones.

No PDF file on msd's web site . New ones should have what you need.

My Kingdom for a fax machine! I have one at work but don't plan on going in any sooner than I have to. I will contact you with that number in the near future if the springs and bushing set doesn't come with the charts. I will let you know if that happens so you don't think I just blew you off. This is more for my Vette than for the Cutlass. They both have the MSD setups in them. The Cutlass runs like a scalded dog and I'm very happy with it. I do want to fine tune it however. My Vette just kind of lays over under 3k rpm in 1st. I want to fix that. It should be roasting the tires. Thanks a million my friend.
