Shelby drop on a 1966 Coupe

I hope someone will be able to give me some good advice ..... I am upgrading my front brakes to discs and decided to install new upper and lower control arms and all new bushings up front. I received some good advice on doing a "shelby drop" on the upper control arms. The only thing that is stopping me is that I already purchased coil springs that will drop the stock height 1". My question is will the "shelby drop" drop my front end another 1"? I dropped the rear of the car 1" by installing mideye leaf springs and I dont want the front end to be too low for some decent size wheels. any help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
