Shocks for T-1's?
I have a 02 Z06 that I can put on T-1 sway bars that I ended up with. I was wondering if the ride is to stiff for normal driving and what shocks to use for mainly street use with them. I live in the boonies and some of the roads are a little rough. I am not going to track the car and maybe just a couple of runs on the 1/4 just to see what it will do. I also have bilstein HD shocks but with what I have read they are probably to stiff. I don't think I want to spend the $ on adjustable ones. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Ken

You still work'n on that car.
Is this the wrecked one that you bought a while back ? The sways won't stiffen your ride to badly as long as you don't pre-load them.
You springs are what's going to make your car more stiff than anything else. If you don't go overboard lowering your car, the bilsteins shold be fine.
Thanks for the info.
