Ground Control setup on 1st gen...

I have the ground control setup (camber plates, springs, Tokico shocks, etc) on an '85 GS. I'm getting ready to switch it over to my '85 GSL. Before I do, I have a question about the shock length.

Do these shocks need to be shortened? I have driven the GS (only once around the block) so I don't know if everything is on or not. The perches are fully adjusted up. Anything less and the spring is loose. You can pick it up and move it around. That can't be a good thing. What do I need to do?

The car is driven on the street as a daily driver and at autoxes. If I ever get any moeny, I'm going to do some track day events too. These are performance changes not a low rider wanna-be.
