The specialists around here on suspension for these cars is VB&P and Van Steel. Both are forum vendors and you'll find many of the other vendors carry their parts. Unless you're just shopping prices, I would talk to either of them before you make a decision on the route to take.

If you purchase from other than VB&P or Van Steel, and have a problem, you'll most likely be dealing with a third party... it isn't a lot of fun, been there and done that.

Also VB&P offers a Forum discount...

Good luck... GUSTO

Ecklers just sells Vette Brakes products with a markup. Go direct to Vette Brakes (VB&P).
