I actually thought the CPP front 'C10 C/O Conversion Kit' captured the C/O spring @ both ends but just looked @ install images only to learn they're not captured @ the top as 68Stepbed mentioned.
Yet another reason for me to not care for the kit

I will admit their a-arms aren't 'bad'....
I just feel the tech about them offering geometry benefits is misleading since they basically come with 'The Caster Mod' done for you which = tubular versions of stock arms

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
