just lowered mine and swapped out all the rear bushings, it helped tremendously, but not 100 percent gone. next on the list is to swap out shocks.

Damn, I can't wait to get mine someday. I've been wanting one since 2002! Don't ever sell your WS6 or the Cobra.

Just curious, what is the difference between the two cars when it comes to driving? I know the SVT will be quicker then a stock LS1 but im not talkina about that. Just overall driving dynamics, how is the SVT different?

I drove a few of my friends 03/04 Cobra's and the Cobra feels better put together. I just HATE the squeaks in the F-body!

Everything is stiffer...pedal is stock and way stiffer than my Centerforce clutch on my LS1. I would rather drive my Camaro long distance and the Cobra for short rides as it handles pot holes better. My camaro is turboed and likes to stretch its legs on the highway. Just my 2 cents.
