Mine seems to sit lower than most C20's, even with 265/70R-17 in front (285/70R-17 rear). I attribute that to 50 year old 6 cyl springs. The disc's and A-arms were from a '76 SRW C30 with big block. I could have used those springs, but at the time feared it would sit too high for my taste.

The stance looks good and initially had to take a second look to see if it wasn't a K20.
I agree that it almost looks like a "K". I wasn't necessarily attempting to achieve that look but I definitely like it The tires that came with the truck when I bought it were labeled "16.5 x 9.5". I think they were around 28" in diameter and looked too narrow and short for my taste so I wanted to fill out the wheel well a little more. As far as I know, I have all original suspension up front. I just figured it sits a little higher because it's a C20. I pictured it would sit more like yours but it looks like it sits a little higher.
