As for the ride height, as metalnut said, add shims under the arms. I currently have 4mm under (instead of the kit 2mm), to give 5mm ride height with Pit 571's, and the kit front springs. I've also added 3mm of shims under the steering posts to help remove some of the bump steer when using the higher arms.

HiH

Ed, saw pics on your site about moving the front rack higher in the car. Did you get to try it out? Any updates? About to purchase one for my F1 collection.
