A coil-over collar and hat for a 2" shock is about $60 from www.pitstopusa.com
A 2.5" ID 8" Hyperco spring is $49 each ...
Personally, I discarded the AFCO "hat" and bought a flatter hat from D & M Performance out of Dumas, Tx in order to get more shock travel. They are $9 each.
I realize it's half-assed and hair-brained ... but it certaily seems to be working on my race car ...

I had the pro-kit, didn't like how bouncy the car was, I got the revalved bilsteins and the ground control kit, and let me tell you, its wonderful, especially for the price, easy to install, and easy to adjust, car handles nice and tight, its nice to be able to adjust the front and rear ride height. I messed with mine until i got the perfect stance i wanted, I'm really happy with the set up.

I have ground-control front coil overs, I ordered from GC. they are a decent piece. However, with the issues I had with receiving all the parts at once I'd order from sam. its a nice setup. you could piece our own together from circle track parts if you don't use Koni's for a bit cheaper. GC is a good kit, just make sure they include spanner wrench and bump stops when they ship you the parts.

Even that doesn't make sense.
The IAS is a shock/spring combo sold by Edelbrock and uses 600 springs.

Ground Control is a seperate company.
Eibach makes springs as well as other things, but you have to specify which of their many springs you are talking about and I assume you are refering to a shock that is valved to match one of those Eibach springs.

Seriously, do you mean you had the Prokit with stock springs?
