Default CC Plate Spacers

Should be getting/installing some MM plates this weekend. Does anyone know what's a good spacer arrangement for Bullitt/Mach 1 springs?

You want as many on top as possible. I think on my car when I had the H&R SS, I had two tall spacers on top and one medium or short spacer on bottom. With the Coilovers I can only have one tall spacer on top.

But MM also says that for some Tokico shock series, I need to use the stock height arrangement. Add to that the Bullitt springs have a mild drop of 3/4", I'm a bit lost. Or are the Bullitt struts excluded from that Tokico series?

You want to allow the top the strut shaft to extend out the top plate of the c/c plates as far as possible without contacting the hood to regain the bump travel of the strut. As long as your not using Fox struts I think you should follow the directions for a lowered car.
