There are so many variations, I've seen an early Holden with 2 inch lowered blocks, and 2 inch lowered springs sit 100mm higher in the front.
you need to decide which spring combo you want to go with install it and get out the tape measure and see what sits right.
Then cut coils off

Ha, the thoughts crossed my mind, I dont think we can get away with that here though, I think i might just have to splash out and buy some new super lows springs and hope there right, what the hell right the budgets long gone out the window

If you call peddlers, or king springs etc etc they should be able to give you a 'hub to guard' measurement..

yeah best speak to spring Co's don't know what yor options are over there, they should just about have something over the counter
or you could pull yor springs out and cut 1,1/4 - 1,1/2 coils off but this is the shonky method, works for me though
