Welcome! It'll be fun to see your LS* project progress.
What Trackbird said. Ditch those drag-racing LCAs and shocks, and use the money for a set of Del-Alum bushings on stock LCAs and some Koni Yellows. There are a lot of posts on this forum about aftermarket LCAs breaking with track use. You may want to also spring (pun intended) for some springs, although with the lighter engine, front springs may not be as big an issue. Most usually end up with higher-rate springs, but you may want to put your particular combo together first and test. |
