I've got a good amount of random pics/vids on my instagram @fp350
Very happy with the drop and feel from them.
Feel free to check it out.

Welp, that about settles it boys. Any of you also running the FP sway bars as well?
Not yet but I'm planning on adding some kind of sways in the next year or so The car handles great with the springs and camber but I think I could use a bit less body roll in track. Not sure which brand yet though.

BMR front and rear sways, BMR rear sway bar end links, Steeda front sway bar end links and Shifteck billet aluminum vertical links in the rear. Sway bars set on middle setting with a professional street performance alignment. Car feels like it is on rails now in Sport and Track. BMR IRS Cradle Bushing Lockout kit this summer then I am done with the suspension!

Those pics really help as I too am thinking of installing the FP springs on my stock 350.
dwalker...your pics are especially helpful. Would you by chance have a "side view" with the stock tires and wheels?
Thanks in advance.

You will have a very slight drop vs. the R springs but not as much as the non-R cars. R springs are different.

yeh, i just read something about how an R owner installed them and didnt notice much difference. i didnt know that the R's were lower than the non-R's.

btw, looks like we both have the LMR SVE R350 wheels.

Thanks dwalker. Thats exactly what I was looking for. Looks good. I think I'll go ahead and pull the trigger on the FP springs.
Much appreciated!

Did you use caster/camber plates or can we run these springs without them?

I just installed them on my R while I had the IRS out to Install the FP Solid Bushing in the Sub-frame and differential. I also installed Cortex Monoball Bearing in the Front and Rear Control Arms, along with the Full Tilt Boogie Camber Arms and Tow Arms. After having the car aligned, I remeasured the front and rear and notice it was roughly a 1/4" lower than the R Springs. I'm also Running the FP sway bars, not that has any baring on the ride height

They will settle a little over time like mine did. Figure your R may drop another 1/4 or so.
