What's the weight difference with the T16 compared to the KV6 ?
As if you get 180 lowering springs and the T16 is much lighter you won't get much of a drop at the front.
I think you would be better of with the lowering springs for the 120.

T16 is a beasty cast iron lump! Probably similar weight to the KV6

Probably have collies by the time T16 is finished anyway, just want something for some xmas lows whilst still running the KV6 lol

The T16 is a heavy old lump of cast iron, very similar to the light weight ali KV6.

TBH I would either go for the coilovers before you do the transplant or after and not bother with lower springs at all.
