Suspension Suggustions

I'm debating what mods I want to do to my car next. Right now I've got 1" lowering springs up front and stock ride height out back (w/ removed spring insulators)

I like the look of the pro kit, but I'm afraid of performance on the track. Will it effect my 60's that bad? I have not ran my car yet.

My car is a '97 SS w/ an adj panhard bar, rear lca's, and 11" ZR1's out back w/ 315-35-17 street tires.

Also, the car is my daily driver.

Pic of current setup.

I'm on the pro kit and stock shocks. the car cuts mid 1.60s on them. I do run the 275 50 15 MT street radials and a few other pieces to help traction though.

really? I've had a few people talk to me about it squating and telling me i'd be lucky to cut 2.0 60's on dr's.

Do you have any pictures of your car? both street and drag setup? At 140k I should change out my shocks too I guess. It rides fine though.

The Spohn TA gives the car anti-squat. Plus I have lower control arms, adj. pan hard bar, relocation brackets, and an air bag in the passenger side spring. Dead hooks every time so far with the MT street radials. We'll see what happens though, when the nitrous is installed. No pics by the way, I'm to busy (lazy).
