Default Spring experts please!

Okay, its time for me to lose the Eibach lowering springs, and get some a little more drag racing friendly. I dont want to spend major dough on adjustable shocks, as I am building a stroker motor right now, and am pretty well tapped out.
What do you reccomend for springs? Brand?
What is a good price for selling my old ones?
Is the airbag worth the investment?
I am already doing wheels up launches, but my 60ft times could be better. My buddy just got his down to a 1.37! The Bastard!!!!

Before you spend big bucks....stick an airbag in the right rear spring. You'll have to play with the air pressure until the car launches straight with equal bite on both sides (a friend with a video camera can help a whole lot for this). YOu may not bother changing springs after getting the airbag installed and adjusted. And, a cheap fix beats an expensive fix anyday....

GOod luck.
