68 ride height with SC front suspension

Using SC front suspension I can't seem to get low enough. I'm guessing I'm on the bump stops at this point. Just for testing, I have removed the torsion bar adjuster which I believe eliminates the torsion bar which should lower the shocks onto the bump stops. Still not low enough. Obviously I don’t want to be on the bump stops.

Is this amount of travel normal? But Ide still like to be lower. Not sure what’s going on here.

The SC torsion bars are designed for a heavier car but...it appears you don't have the 911 fully outfitted as of yet so there is no way to tell how it will sit full loaded.
This should be (ride height) one of the last things you do....don't worry about it now until you have a 'done' ride.

I get it. But no matter what the weight is. If I go lower. The shock looses travel. No?
Thanks

What about an aftermarket shock assembly with a raised spindle?

A stock front end will only get so low.
