      • That would be awesome nate. Not sure about saturday yet but ill let you know. I need to figure out what springs i want, i definitely want a higher spring rate and i dont think i want to go quite as low as yours. Im iffy on stranos they seem to ride a little high.

            Touche. I had kyles car in mind when i said that. I need to find some examples of LT1s with stranos since they weigh differently.

              true, I'd think the front would actually sit lower with the iron block?

                    The spoiler definitely needs a good wet sand to match up with the rest of my paint, and I am debating clearing it as well as this is a single stage of black. Not sure if its necessary or not.
                    Those pictures look great. If I own another 4th gen, an SS spoiler will be one of the first things I do.
                    I'm glad your happy with how it turned out. I chose not to have it wet sanded it to save you a few bucks as I know your great at detailing/rub outs and then you could match the amount of orange peel or lack of it with the rest of the car.

                        Yep wetsanding it wont be a problem. I will probably do it later this season though. For now there are more important things i would like to address on the car, this is 100x better than it was the way it is!

                            That's what I'm running!

                            Though, when I feel like it, I'll probably switch the rears out to bilsteins as it's a much easier swap than the front and I can't carry much more than 100+ lbs without the tire hitting on larger bumps.
