C6 Suspension for drag racing
I need some insight on what suspension would be good to run on a C6, LS3, auto, N/A, running in the high 10's? Any insight or suggestions please

Factory suspension is pretty good you can adjust ride height and pre-load any corner just get two way adjustable shocks front and rear to control weight transfer.

What xboost said.
In fact I'll have a set of used viking DA shocks for sale soon.

Yeh... many running in the 9s with bone stock suspensions.
If you feel you must get something, a simple adjustable shock like QA-1 or Viking will work just fine.

Earlier this year I ran 10.9s back to back at different tracks with stock suspension and a small torque converter. I have since moved to el paso so elivation is killing me on my times but I'm cutting 1.4s no problem with nitrous and 1.6s na here still.

Just why I said stock will do I have double adjustable QA1 all four corners on my c6 GS but will not advise anyone to get em sense they will fit the C5 but must do some work to make em work on the C6.
If you are ok doing the work then get the two inch longer fronts with 12 inch long 250 springs for street & strip stock length rears and 300 springs.
