lowering blocks

Is it okay to use lowering blocks to adjust your ride height on the back of a leaf spring car, that will be used for drag racing? I have seen alot of 9 second cars that do run them. Other racers say not to. I know there are alot of fast cars on here with leaf springs. Does anyone use them?

Re: New Guy

That is the first thing is shocks. I'm also thinking Afco bushings also I had to cut 1 and 1/2 coils off of the spring to get about 5 inches of front end travel. Does that change the spring rate?
