Exclamation Need advice on a good street-strip rear suspension set up

I want to upgrade my stock rear shocks and springs on my m6 98 trans am with 433rwhp . I am looking for a good set up for street and drag racing to help with my 60 foot. I have a twelve bolt moser with bmr lcas , torque arm adjustable and some sub frames thats about it. my front shocks are kyb agx adjustable with eibach pro kit. Any recomendations of what rear set up i should go with like qa1s or what you guys think? Thanks

Hello
Sounds like you have decent parts. Now I would suggest going with a good single adjustable rear shock and possibly a coil over system with a (300lb) spring to help with weight transfer to the rear tires. Below is a link to show you what all I am explaining.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will be more than glad to help.
Thanks

your stock rear springs and a set of Strange or Afco single adjustable shocks, and a set of lca relocators is all you need. i can get you hooked up with a sweet deal on all of it. pm or call me.
