New spring, shocks, and strut rods in........ What a difference!
330# fiberglass spring from VBP
Matched KYB shocks (VBP218)
HD Smart struts with heim joints. I love overkill.
I only drove for 10 minutes or so but the change is wonderful. Rear doesn't squat so much on launch. Chirped the tires going into second once. :eek: NEVER expected that. Doesn't porpoise anymore.
Turns out one old shock was going bad and the other was completely blown. Man this is great! Hopefully tomorrow I'll get the Flowmasters on there and I'll have a CORVETTE!!!! :reddevil

No rear sway bar on small block vettes. I've considered adding one but have had conflicting accounts of how it will affect things.
