Aren't these cars stiff enough? You'll kill the handling and ride of the
car. I say get stiffer shocks, preferably adjustable Konis, which should
reduce your travel to some extent and tighten up the suspension.

You can always use 66/67 springs which are stiffer but not competition
stiff. Going around any bumpy corners will cause skipping and hopping and
the tar strips will feel like mountains.

Just a thought,
Mike
