    On this subject, does anyone know much about camber kits?

    I was looking at the K-Mac website ( Welcome to K-MAC, Camber Kits, Caster Kits, Springs, Swaybars. ), which has just been expanded to include all models of Commodores, and their camber kits seem like good things.

    Has anyone here had experience with them? Would be neat if, as they claim, they can be adjusted without jacking the car. Track days interest me and to be able to drive to the track, adjust them, race around for a few hours and then reset them to road use for the trip home has some appeal.

    Those do look good, they say you can reset them without jacking the car and that you can get repeatable settings (like I'd want, for track days and then driving home again) easily.

    the Lovells site has the 'eyebrow' height listed in their catalogue.
    King Springs I would assume offers the same info, or you could ask them.
    Compare the eyebrow heights and you should find a compatible spring.
