Get the Lt1 prokit. The Ls1 kit sags over time and the Lt1 kit is a better overall kit. It works fine on lt1 and ls1 models. Pictures look here https://ls1tech.com/forums/suspension-brakes/406330-those-who-want-see-ride-height-after-springs.html and there are 10000s of threads on this.

Go with Strano's springs. You'll regret buying the pro-kit i promise. the fronts are great IMO, but the rears ALWAYS sag.
I have pro-kit fronts and Strano's rears.

this is with the pro-kit rears. hard to tell from this pic.

I'd go strano. Pro-kit has only bad things said about it to me. Always see people complaining about those springs.

Just a note--It's estimated the shipment to be here in about 5 weeks, but I don't have an exact date. Hard to get one on 4 pallets coming form Germany on a ship....

Based on when I ordered, and how long it normally takes an order to show up, that's the ETA--stress on the "E".

Get the Stranos man. You won't be sorry. You'll need shocks too I hate to tell you cause the factory Decarbons will blow out with lowering springs Swing some Koni's if you can.

I would even consider buying the Koni's first.
