Roadster rear springs on 411?

I'm thinking of lowering my SSS sedan. AZhitman suggested roadster springs up front which is nice as I have a pair on hand. I also have set of roadster rear springs. Any thoughts if they would fit? Would they lower car to match front?

Just put in 2" lowering blocks,  I think they will stiffen the spring also due to a bigger spring pad.  Car looks really low to me now,  but I'll let it sit until I install the engine and see how it looks then.  

 

Upon inspection it looks to me that the Roadster springs would fit,  the only obvious dimensional difference is in the front eye, which is much larger on the 411.  The Roadster springs are stiffer and would perhaps change the shackle angle as they don't appear to have as much arch as the 411 springs.  I may try them if I don't like the blocks.

 

Thanks!
