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.

Take a look at tvblazer78's Blazer. That's pretty much his set up.

My 77 was set up that way before I went with the Ridetech 4 link.

Re: how much will this drop

There is nothing wrong with the AOL set up. The one big difference I have found is the 4 link offers a larger range of adjustment. You will have to dial in your "sweet spot" with the AOL.
To clarify that, when my AOL was first installed we did not have the blocks in. That meant that we had to run very little pressure to get the ride height we wanted. By adding the lowering blocks we were able to add more pressure and gain a better ride.

It's "do-able" with an AOL but it might require some tuning.
