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.

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.
