Default Strano Lowering Springs or Eibach Drag Launch Springs?

Debating on which springs I should get next... Either Strano 1.2" lowering springs or Eibach drag launch springs with Bilstein shocks. I know both are completely different but I would like to here the pros-cons. Thanks

I wanna start taking it to the strip more often or just normal weekend fun but a cam & LS6 heads will be going into the car pretty soon. I daily drive it but have two extra cars I can use so that's not a big deal to me...

I don't think the drag springs drop it any so unless its a dedicated track car your chasing numbers with I would go stranos. My car will honestly see the track more than the road and I went with the stranos just for the looks lol.

Skip those drag launch springs all together. If you want a better launch at the track it would much more effective to get some drag shocks and run stock springs.

Stranos if its just a part time drag car and gets driven around on the street more.

Stranos for the 95% you are street driving and relocation brackets if you have forward bite trouble or wheel hop on the occasional track day.
