HMM you know that is all I'm really looking for new stock suspension is enough for this car really so any improvement on stock would be a bonus not to mention the stock setup has 65K on it now.

I actually got a crazy deal on the hood a board member in Seattle took it off his 98 Black SS cause he needed room for his single plane manifold setup. He delivered it for 450!!!! I've actually had alot of great deals!!!

I may look into the Monroes as a replacement. Its hard because most guys on here advise on "performance" which if we were talking my vette I'd understand. But this is driver its never going to see an autocross and rarely has anything more than a slightly "spirited" driving in the curves. But whens its 90 out like it is today it is a Joy to drive rive:
