Correct spring rate for QA1 coilovers

looks like coil bind to me. likely (for starters) the spring is wayyyyyy soft. Also looks like the Dilinger LCA coil over conversion???

Need more info to get into the ballpark at what spring rate you should have. What engine? and is there anything done to take ar add any weight?
Qa1 guidline.....the spring, at installed height should collapse 25%-30%....or, a 10" spring should collapse 2-1/2" to 3" once installed and all the weight on it.

good luck with the build,
Denny

I'll get some better pics of the suspension so maybe someone here will recognize it and tell me who made it.

It's a small block with aluminum heads and currently has no heat or A/C system. I plan on adding vintage air at some point. Other than that, I would think it's close to average weight of most small block A-bodies.
