55W, slimline kit, with headlight housings, no high beams, plug and play, we can do $199 intro priced. Seem reasonable?

Have them from the same MFR on 5 of our vehicles, all are a HUGE upgrade. The Ballasts have the MFR name on them so I doubt they are OE.
FWIW, we have had them on our turbo TBSS, & Tahoe for 1.5 years, and havent had an issue. HUUUGGE upgrade over stock. One of our guys installed them on his Turbo Buick, and needed to run relays because of the poor factory wiring. But the 2 1st Gen Camaros didnt need them.

Also love that you have kept this reasonably original all over. At the risk of being called a heathen, there is nothing wrong with the factory suspension for regular use!
I dont have any issues with my 68. LS7 in the front lost around 250lbs over BBC. That must help!

Love that redline touch on there. What size MT's are they on the 15 x 7 wheels.

Stock suspension is fine for me. We had to cut a coil out of the original worn out SB springs, so I am unsure of the total weight savings up front, but it is substantial.

Been there, done that.

I have nothing against it, my first 69 conversion 10 years ago had a ton of upgrades, and my 67 GT500/04 Cobra conversion has an aftermarket subframe and G-bar rear suspension, and sure it handles better, but this car rides soft, and stock, which is fine for me right now. I can add brakes, coil overs and wheels at any time if my heart desires, but right now, I like it just how it is. Quiet, soft, plain, and fast.
