63" chevy springs

i have heard that 63" chevy springs flex out really good and was able to find a set really cheap. was wondering if anyone knows how much lift they really give a 85 toyota. also how do they work with 44044s up front. also exactally how much lift should 44044s give you. right now I have 4" lift springs and 2" shackles but am not getting the flex i am looking for.
