front adjustable coil-overs

[alfie murie]

Hi Guys, I am just about to start my winter project of beefing up the front suspension of my S1 phaeton including a new set of coil-overs. As I run with a rover V8, with the usual spitfire/herald front suspension, I was wondering what the spring poundage should be on the new coil-overs I am ordering from Dampertech. Your advice/comments will be much appreciated

Isn't the Rover v8 an alloy block? Would have thought it would be similar, maybe even a little lighter than the Pinto

Mine has 225lb/in with the pinto up front and its....firm a bit too firm TBH. how much heavier is the rover?
