The I6 spring will lower the front end to make a level look. Adding good shocks and larger sway bar will make for very good handling without any real change to geometry.

 ????  There are no eccentrics on the upper arms on a 68. The bolt holes in the shock towers are round, all camber adjustment is via the eccentric bolts on the lower control arms. With rubber bushings, all bolts should be left loose until the car is on the ground, with all the weight on the suspension.

BUI,  I apologize if I am using the wrong terminology, on APD they call them eccentric bolts, thus I called them that. Anyways I appreciate your advice and will have all bolts on the front suspension loose when I install the power train.  Thanks
