Default What would you do with my springs ?

I have a 01 Z-28 that the previose owner put on the SLP Eibach springs and Bilstein shock package that lowers the car 1.2"

I could care less about cornering and just want to set this car up for the 1/4 drag track, and DD to work of coarse

Can somebody recommend some better springs that will give me a better launch at the drag strip?

The front springs have #74076 on them and the rears say #80683 which I assume are Eibach #'s
BUT Eibach's website doesn't even have a search box so I can't figure out how to look them up to find the spring rates

What springs and what rates do you recommend to improve my short time?

Thanks in Advance, Zach

I'd throw those springs in the dumpster and put some stock ones back on the car at a minimum.

Would have to agree for the money a set of stock springs work really well.

If you have a couple of bucks to spend do the stockers on the rear with an adjustable shock and a Strange adjustable coilover setup on the front.

A link for the Strange items can be found HERE

Thanks guys, that is what I was hoping to hear, the car will ride better and launch better, the local bone yard wants $30 for the rears and $30 for the fronts, I will price the strange springs and go form there.
