Default 85 prelude suspension help!!!!

Hey, well heres my story. I have a 1985 honda prelude I oval race on a 1/3 track and 3/8 mile track. The prelude has an 88 accord 2.0L SOHC engine in it now with a 5 speed tranny. It is now a fast car. I had a carb 1.8L origanlly in it but wasn't fast enough so i swaped it for the accord engine. Anyways heres my trouble! The car is finishing top 5 now with the engine but the corner is bad. I go in good because i have cut the left side springs down so it dives in good but coming out it pushes to the wall and that is where everyone starts to pulll on me. I have figured out i need stiffer springs on the right side, spring rubbers in the stock springs don't work.

so anyways thats my story, does anyone know the stock compression rate of the 85 prelude springs, front and back??

I need to know to figure out how stiff to go.

Please help!!! Or tell me where to find this info!
