Default Will I Benefit from LCAs?? Please Read!!

First off, I have an '02 SS--see sig for mods. It is not a daily driver. I do not drag her on the street or on the strip. It's not that I don't want to, I just haven't had the opportunity. I will not go to the strip, and when I do, it will only be occasionally. In the future (very distant future), I may go with bigger HP mods...like headers, cam, and possibly heads.
Now, with that said...I am getting BMR LCA Relo Brackets and an adjustable PHR...because I lowered my car. I am also getting SFCs.
My question is, is it a good idea for me to replace the LCAs too? In my situation, will I see any real benefit?
Thanks,
Jeff

I think by adding better LCA's you'll be making your suspension mods more complete, you may have already choosen what kind of SFC you want but I would recommend www.spectaclesolutions.com .

You are the second person that has said that to me, and to be honest, it is starting to pi** me off a little bit. Just becuase I don't take my car to the track and rag the he** out of it, doesn't mean that I don't love, appreciate, and want the speed and power. The track is 3 hours from where I live. It is a royal pain to go to the track, especially when none of my other friends can go. I am not against going to the track(actually I will go), I just can't go all the time...and it just happens that I haven't had time to go since I graduated, got married, and started a career, all within 3 months. I do drive my car. In fact, I drive it often. I drive it on weekends when the weather is nice, and also after work--again when the weather is nice. When I do drive it, sometimes I drive it real hard, and sometimes I don't. I love working on it also...to me, that is half the fun.
So, I would appreciate you saving the smart remarks.
BTW, it is spelled "neighbors".
Thanks and Have a Nice Day.

I don't race people and have absolutely no interest in the track. It's too expensive. I also like to tinker, and when I want to see the far side of 150 mph, I go at it alone. It's a canvas. Something to express my ideas and put em' to reality.
