they are made by Airlift there are just to stiffen the rear up slightly plus if I have people in the rear seat I could pump em up to avoide bottoming out.

Well unless you have your heart set on an LS2 you should look into an LS1 because with a mild cam you would have more power than the LS2 and still save a good chunk of change. I really wanted an LS2 as well but a deal came up that I couldn't pass on and I really don't regret it. Just a suggestion if you still want the LS2 then more power to ya.
