What length are your spring bolts now? Let us know. Carefully measure the distance from the top of each fender opening to the ground. Let us know that too. You have homework. No computer games till I see it.

PS. Is your rear spring factory or aftermarket? I suspect it's aftermarket. I can almost guess the manufacturer.

I bet that is a TRW "restore the ride height" aftermarket spring. Try 8" bolts back there. Maybe that will bring your rear to 27.5", and just leave the front alone for now.

PS Your glass tops look like crap. Find some white ones and mail that junk glass to me. I'll take them off of your hands free of charge. No really, no charge. You are part of the Corvette Brotherhood now, your practiacally family.
