Get a set of 4 cyl springs for the front, ditch the sway bar, try to get some 90/10s and that 2.2 will go away.

I'm not 88workcar...but I'll jump in anyway. No, do not reuse the same head bolts. New heads deserve new head bolts.

Do you think my car could benefit from 4 cyl. springs in the front? I have stiff, specific rate Eibach lowering springs on all 4 corners right now. Would the 4 cylinder front springs keep it lowered some still? And would the 4 cyl. springs be ok for street driving? Going around turns, over bumps, etc.?
