I've driven the cars this way and they typically handle pretty well and feel pretty balanced. If your springs in the back are too light it will have to overcome the weight of the car (not insignificant with an SCTE) and the resistance of the oil from movement. After you have found the balanced springs you should start with 30 wt oil (or something like that, its not critical where you start) and set your ride height front and rear.

I'll put in harder springs and check everything again and report back.

Thanks for the suggestions
