Default Suspension Questions

Im just about to put a exhaust system on my car and have money left to do some suspension and other stuff. Problem is i have no idea on suspension mods what good and not to do. I have a 93 t/a with low miles but i feel my suspension sucks i really feel every bump in the road.What should I do. Ive been told lower control arms are a good start and I was planning some 2 point bolt on SFC. Any good help here would be greatly appreciated. What have most of you lt1 owners do and how do you like?

well...do some LCA's panhard rod, and torque arm. that should be a good setup for starters...SFC's are really needed if youre stock...but look into some good shocks and springs and some decent tires...that will help you alot as well...good luck

I have an Eibach Pro Kit on my car, they are stiffer springs, about 1.3" lower. They are alot better for handling, the car is glued to the road. They are real low, you might scrape up that new exhaust.
