No problem techinspector, I really like this forum and appreciate feedback and suggestions. Sometimes I concentrate too much on details. You were not out of bounds since I originally said I hadn't called to save money. That was only partly true.

I understand your way of thinking, and if I was busy I would have already picked up the phone and moved on to the next issue, but I have some time on my hands and thought I could get some answers on the net.

I just got back from a local speed shop and they reinforced what was said here but in a more direct way. And that is, the shocks are manufactured so that the springs on the market don't over power them, even on the lowest rebound setting of 90/10. On launch, the a-frame bump stop should prevent them from fully extending to the point of damaging the shocks or suspension. I just have to make sure that my bump stops are sufficient or to install seperation straps.
They also said there is such a small difference between medium and high spring rates that it shouldn't make much difference in weight transfer.
