example for the article.cls. look at the specific class-files for
section, subsection,... the definitions are always similar to this
one of section.
in latex preamble
\def\mySpaceUnder{4cm} % 4cm as an example
\def\mySpaceOver{3cm} % 3cm as an example
\renewcommand\section{\@startsection {section}{1}{\z@}%
{\mySpaceOver \@plus -1ex \@minus
-.2ex}%
{\mySpaceUnder \@plus.2ex}%
{\normalfont\Large\bfseries}}
