What shocks and struts are nice that aren't too expensive? Who's use what and how do you like them? Also, the Eibach drag springs...how well do these work, or would I be better off with some 4 cyl. front springs? Let me know, thanks.

How do you like this setup? What shocks and struts do you have?

I understand stock suspension with a removed front swaybar is a pretty capable setup well past the 11's [Wink]
only thing I'd change would be a rear LCA, and of course, welded torque boxes [Big Grin]

Well, I would do this, but my shocks and struts are worn out (ask anyone that saw my car at the track last time...the rear end drops and bounces A LOT when I launch). Mark (Bunchmyfunky) and Drew (Yellow94GT) were there. Thanks for the help you've been giving me though. But I think I may have ripped my torque boxes from last time at the track...I get a clunk when I go over a speed bump, and LCA's are planned too.
