: Lowered 70?

Hi! I've decided to lower our 70 Chevelle a bit while we're into some of the suspension. I was thinking the car would do well with a 2" drop in the front and 1.5-2" in the back. I was thinking the easiest way to do this would be through lowering springs but the lowest I've seen is the Hotchkis kit at 1". Is there a reason for this? Does the geometery on these cars get fouled up past 1"? It's a big block car so I was just wondering if anyone else has lowered theirs past 1" and what it looks like and how it handles. Also, how visibly noticeable is the 1" drop on these cars? Does anyone have any pictures? Thanks...
