Thats cool, Try looking at all the bushings and make sure their not worn out. That might help you.

go with LT1 prokit....they are just about as low as the LS1 prokit and they are more firm in the rear so they ride better. Give Sam Strano a call he will hook you up.

Mine is as low as i would want to go, and the only thing i scrape is the factory Y pipe, BUT my Y pipe DEFINATLEY hangs lower than most others.....i think i will actually gain clearence when i go with duals

This is a great thread.


I was looking at the springs that lower the car 1.75 but my buddie has them and he has duels and scraps everything. How would the prokit work with long tubes?

G2 springs... 1.75-2" I scrape at certain angles often, but it's fine. What constitutes as "slamed"?





More pics in link in sig.

Here's a before shot to give you an idea....

I had the sportlines but ended up changing out the rears with the prokit due to the stiff ride. Too uncomfortable....

I've got a 01' WS6 just put the sportline on last year. It's got 18x9, 275/35/18 front and 18x10, 285/35/18 back. I've had no problems scaping. It makes the car look like a race car! It's sweet!

I'm guessing the hooker 'Y' pipe hangs lower then the Pacesetter????
