I need to get an alignment on my SS after my Koni/Strano install. Who would you guys recommend in Houston?

Thanks

We live down in Pearland, so I don't have any direct experience with anyone up near Tomball, but the question comes up a couple of times a year on the Houston SCCA forum. Here are some choices:

craigs auto repair service...talk to john phillips - He's a Spec Miata shop, but may do work on other cars.
C & C's Northside Motors - aka Track Time Performance
Awesome Z is near 59 - specialize in Nismos, but will work on anything with wheels. Can do alignments to your specs.

Benson's Wheel Alignment
18430 South Hwy 3
Webster TX 77598
They will do non-standard alignment.
Mustang Automotive Repair in Friendswood

I can recommend Mustang Automotive, but have only had a street car done there. They did do our 150,000+ Caprice, noting that one side had more negative camber than the other, and not having any more adjustment to fix it, but still did the rest of the work. I had replaced the tie rods and center link. I'm sure the car's been offroad in it's past life (it's a 9C1) and the frame is tweaked. Sill the did the work without trying to sell me parts.

The Awesome Z guys race lemons/chump with us, thanks for the recommendations!
