Thanks to all who gave me advice on the front springs.  I haven't decided
what I'm going to do yet.
Now I've got a question of the rear.

The rear of my Spitfire sits pretty high, higher than the front is currently
sitting. Its high enough that I can see quite a bit of positive camber in
the rear wheels.  Is there any way to lower it slightly, other than putting
extra weight in the trunk?  The spring is old and crusty, so I would have
though it would be sagging by now. Is it possible to put a spacer on top of
the diff, where the spring mounts,  so the spring is mounted higher in
relation to the body? How do people lower the rear in a competition car?
Thanks
MikeC
