I'm looking to put new leaf springs on my 78 nova. I could go with stock or add a little height to give it the little more aggressive look, which I want. Anybody done this and how much height should I add...1 inch 2 inch...?? More?? I dont want it to look ridiculous either. If you got pics please share

Depending on how saggy your current springs are, new springs might give you an inch. If you want more of a rake then go for a taller spring.

I'm going to with the assumption that they are original so yea they are probably saggy. But how much over stock height would be a good height to go?

I’d say that’s a personal preference call.. Look for cars with a stance you like and go from there. You can jack the back of your car up to where you like it and measure off the height. If you have a set of air shocks you can play around with different heights then commit to a height you like and select new springs.
