Default Buy UMI Suspension from Byunspeed today , Question about shocks and SFC



First of all , I'm the man of the world today because of UMI
Soon will receive the kits in Saudi Arabia and will install it on my 2001 Camaro SS

UMI Performance Transmission Mounted Non-Adjustable Torque Arm

UMI Performance Tubular Lower Control Arms & Non-Adjustable Panh

UMI Performance Front End Kit - Stage 3

UMI Performance Torque Arm Relocation Kit, Manual


And really thanx the byunspeed for good prices and good customer services


I have some questions about shocks and Subframe Connectors

My car has only SLP Exhaust with Volant Intake , T-56 with 360 rwhp, which SFC will match my needs specially will use the car for street racings and some drag races. ( 3 points ? 2 points ? weld-in ? bolt-ons ? )

Also I'm looking for shocks , which one do you recommand ? and can I install the stock springs ?? .. because I like the stock height

Without getting into whether you are doing the street racing safely/legally, I will say that you're going to want Koni for that, ideally. I, for one, think SFCs are overrated.

definatly weld in sfc over the bolt in. welds are solid, bolts can work loose. you can always bolt them up AND weld them though.

i don't see much advantage of 3pt over 2pt sfc. on a typical street car, there probably isn't enough of a difference.

about the best shocks out there are the Koni single adjustables. other than that, maybe some bilstein HDs. both will work GREAT with stock springs.

Thanx Bard for your reply , and UMI is known here as best for F-Bodies
Regarding thr SFC , there are alot of types that UMI make ( bolt-on , weld-on , 3 points ...... etc ) as a street race car " will not be more than 450 rwhp " with T-56 .. which one do you advise me ?
