Replace the springs on your coilovers from 250/300lb ones; that will take the weight of the engine better.

You can get replacement springs for normal shocks. Contact the manufacturer, or look at the company 'coil springs' - they should be able to make you some up

theres no real need for coilovers, if you want handling go for shocks and springs,
coilovers will just cause you problems with fitment ect and wheels rubbing on them,
personally i used corsa gsi standard shocks and springs on my let corsa,
went round corners well and went in a straight line well,
