I know someone with 240K 270mm disc struts in his 180B rally car and
uses the 180B tops. From memory the 240K tops were lower by about
1/2"(I'll check this). If he uses the standard 180B springs, the front
end is about level with the back using slightly heavier same length rear
springs. With 240K springs it raises the front end an inch or 2, enough
for him to now have trouble looking over the bonnet when going over
crests. I can see myself modifying some seat mounts soon. I can measure
the car if anyone wants.
