Hey Paul, I see you post over on Chitown and the NMCA board. Welcome to LS1Tech.
I use a chrome moly k-member and chrome moly upper & lower a-arms from PA Racing. For shocks, I use the QA1 "R"s with the 275lbs springs (car weighs 2800lbs). I have the stock rack with the lines looped since I took off the power steering. For brakes, mine are stock, but I am going to the PA Racing spindles and Strange drag brakes here shortly.

"Spartacus" yeah i know who you are, we pit together at Super Bowl race, i didn't have my car but, i raced George Carey's vette and bought his camaro there in my trailer... so ok you have PA, i was looking at that package deal that BMR has in FSC mag for $2700 any pros and cons on that set up?
The BMR stuff is really good quality. There are a lot of guys out there running their stuff and love it. I personally went with PA Racing because they are local, I got a package deal on the k-member and both upper & lower a-arms that BMR couldn't beat, and BMR didn't offer chrome moly and PA did. I am all about putting the best and lightest components in my car. I was really impressed with the quality and fitment of the PA stuff. I am going to be running the PA spindles and Strange drag brakes all around eventually.
Oh, speaking of FSC magazine, did you get the new one with the white TA on the cover? Check out page 129; the Hawk Performance add. Does that car look familiar?

I had Jason make it with his engine stands so I can use a polyurethane bushing. I drive the car a lot on the street and wanted to do a poly over the solid. I forget what the price was, but it was better than everyone else at the time. I think he is running a sale right now as a matter of fact.
