i used 550 front and 360 rear on my green machine (69 sb coupe)...
it rode a little rough..
it wasnt bad on smooth roads.. but those are in rare supply around here..

330 pound on mine, feels just right. Some people have said they got too high of a bumper height with certain mono springs, I'm not sure what that's all about, something about the way are arced. Maybe someone else has more info. You will want shocks matched to the spring to get the correct ride. I used Delco Reactec's, couldn't afford Bilsteins.
