Whoa. All I know is that these, in addition to my 1LE swaybars, feel fantastic. High speed lane changes, on/off-ramps, you name it. It all feels great. Stiffened up nicely. Just a few more suspension mods (LCA's, SFC's, PHR, etc) and I'll feel complete. So anyone on a budget looking for a good "daily driver" setup, I would recommend these.

Which shocks and springs did you get? I need some new shocks too (maybe springs).

I ordered the take-off shocks today.
I was going to oreder the springs to, but the guy at SLP said NOT to. He said they would increase my cars ride height and be very harsh.
I'm not worried about them being harsh.
But, will they increase my ride height?97 Silver Camaro M5<br />Y87 Package<br />K&N FIPK<br />Flowmaster 80 Series<br />Mille Miglia MM11-2 18x9 wheels<br />Kumho ECSTA 275/35ZR 18s<br />Centerforce Dual Friction<br />B&M Ripper Shifter<br />1LE Aluminum DS<br />BMR LCA\'S<br />SLP 1.8 Rockers<br />ZZP UD WP Pulley<br />H&R Sport Springs<br />Spohn Adj PHR<br />160* ThermostatComment

it will increse the ride high just a little..
higher spring rate w/ less weight = higher ride height.. well.. slightly higher..
this will proably cause some problems.. maybe not huge ones.. but.. you would be smarter to jsut stick with the v6 springs you have for now..

I have the take-off shocks and V8 springs, and both the 1LE 32mm front bar and 21mm rear bar.
I love the way it handles! :D
The V8 front springs may raise the front, but it looks OK to me.Robert - owner www.FirebirdV6.com/CamaroV6.com
