Re: dead horse spring question

[Cheapass Ron <rapieper@yahoo.com>]

FWIW...I had Neuspeed Sport springs on my 16V...they were 8V springs. 
They bottomed...a lot.  Maybe it was that I had Bilstien HD's and I
should have had Sports, I don't know...but I had to make up some
spacers to fit beneath the springs and raise the car 3/4".  Presto, all
was well in the world.  Soooo...my conclusion...there IS a difference
between 8V and 16V springs, and it's not wise to apply 8V springs on a
16V car.
